Summary
But we must keep in mind that paying higher gas prices now will mean better lives for our children, our grandchildren and the generations that follow.Russia’s brutal and unprovoked invasion of Ukraine leaves the United States and its allies no choice but to do whatever is possible to keep Russian fossil fuels, which fund President Vladimir Putin’s war machine, off the world markets. And disruption of the supply from Russia — the United States, for example, has imposed a total ban on imports of Russian oil — sent rising gas prices even higher.The sky-high price of gasoline is a powerful incentive to use less of it — which would mean reduced carbon emissions.
