Using complete sentences, discuss the energy challenges in Canada and the United States. Identify at least one step each country is taking to overcome these challenges.

Although the United States is one of the largest producers of energy in the world, it is also one of the biggest consumers. For example, although the US is a leading producer of oil, it consumes more oil than it produces, making it necessary to import oil. To combat this dependence on oil, the United States has been exploring alternative sources of energy. Alternative energy sources such as solar and wind power are becoming more popular, along with fuel-efficient products like hybrid cars. Like the United States, Canada also consumes large amounts of energy. Energy is needed to provide heat in cold weather, to move goods, and to process raw materials. To cut back usage, the country has initiated new programs aimed at reducing fuel consumption. Canada also has created numerous hydroelectric power plants and receives half of its energy from them.
