We all want to reduce oil consumption, and I had this thought. We use oil in so many ways in our lives other than to produce energy. Does anyone have a breakdow on where the oil is used and in what proportion?

It purports to be specific to California, but probably a good idea of what you'd see elsewhere. --RN
