Exxon

To whom it may concern:

I am a 19 year old college student currently attending Eckerd College in St. Petersburg, Florida. I am writing to you concerning the impact of rising fuel efficiencies on your corporation. Recently automobile manufacturers have been pushed by the public and the government to make more environmentally friendly and fuel efficient automobiles. Many companies have at least one hybrid in their vehicle lineup, and more are most likely to come. I am curious has to how this will affect your business in the future. There is a very high possibility that in the next fifty years our highways will be covered in hybrids and electric cars. Will these changes liquidate the profits your company has made recently due to our high gas prices? Will your company disappear without the need for gas in automobiles, or will it adapt and invest in alternative fueling, such as electric or hydrogen? Thank you for your time.
