In class yesterday we had a sacratic circle on a paper that we read. It is about crude oil. Hear is a short summary. There is about 2.6 trillion undiscoverd barrels of oil in the ground. There is also oil in rocks called oil shale. But it costs so much to extract the oil from the rocks that no one does it. We are working on cars that will become more invirenment healthy. one of these cars is the minicat. That concludes my summary.

Yesterday in class we learned about crude oil in a article called “Crude awakening”. We had a Socratic circle on what we learned from the article and discussed what was in the article as well. Well discussing I learned from the article that there are about 2.6 trillion barrels of oil left in the ground. 1.7 trillion is discovered by us. The other 900 trillion barrels are undiscovered by the world. OPEC is the Organization of Petroleum Export Countries. They sell oil and effect oil prices greatly. Thats what I learned in the Socratic circle.
