this was a rain forest. | 0:08 | |
The trees and plants long ago were turned | 0:10 | |
into huge deposits of coal. | 0:12 | |
The coal's never been used. | 0:14 | |
Until now that was okay. | 0:16 | |
But today, our country needs all the energy we can develop. | 0:18 | |
That's why Texaco's research teams are working | 0:21 | |
on ways to turn the coal in this Wyoming field | 0:23 | |
into other energy forms, | 0:26 | |
like a synthetic heating gas that power companies | 0:27 | |
can burn to make electricity and into fertilizers. | 0:30 | |
Texaco is working on ways to utilize coal | 0:34 | |
so more of America's precious oil will be | 0:36 | |
for gasoline to run your car | 0:38 | |
and fuel oil to heat your home. | 0:40 | |
That's our business. | 0:43 | |
