Tar sands EROI

1. We should use tar sands first because they have a higher EROI
2. A similarity between the two processes is that both need to be heated in order to retrieve oil
3.  A major difference is that you get more oil from tar sands; natural gas is a big emission caused by extracting oil from oil shale
4. Offshore drilling will be smarter in the long run to reduce green house gas emissions because there is a higher EROI, this means we can produce more oil without using a lot of oil and/or energy to extract it
5. When doing homework, I always do the easiest assignments first because it takes the least amount of effort and most of the time I just don't want to dig into the hard stuff right away; I do the easiest things after school so I like to spare my brain to do the easy things first
