Oil Addiction: Addiction We Are Not Aware Of

You have come out of your house, now you have to go to your work place. Except for your work place is at a walk-able distance, I am sure you are going to have some vehicle to reach your workplace on time.

This is not just one example of oil addiction. Say, how do you cook your food with out your stove on? Perhaps not everybody is going to use a Microwave oven; not all the time. Even the usage of Microwave oven is somehow related to oil usage in it. This is how the biggest addiction worldwide is going on legally and ruling the pollution of the environment.

“Foolish logic”, said one of my learned friend when I said this to him,”you can’t live without breathing for even a minute (or two, lets assume). Does that mean that you are addicted to breathing?”

You cannot live without air, its OK; but you can live without oil, without your car, whatever it is running on oil, but you are still not trying to live without it. Then why cannot I call it addiction.

The thing here is that Addiction is not an offensive word; addicting to wrong habits is.

It is bad if you addicted to drugs, videogames, smoking. But it’s OK if you are addicted to Electricity. It is OK if you are addicted to Oil. You are trying to enhance your life through it.

But still you are addicted.
