Question

what major lesson did the u.s. learn from the 1970s oil crisis? all fossil fuels are completely renewable. foreign nations can control energy prices. gasoline should only be used in emergencies.

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

The 1970s oil crisis was caused by political events in the Middle - East that led to an oil embargo. Fossil fuels are non - renewable resources, so the statement "All fossil fuels are completely renewable" is incorrect. Also, gasoline was (and still is) a major fuel for transportation and not just for emergencies. However, the crisis showed that foreign oil - producing nations (through actions like the embargo) can have a significant impact on energy prices.

Answer:

Foreign nations can control energy prices.
