What percentage of Natural gas does the Us use?
I assume you are asking about oil and how much total oil we have left in the world. In the United States we have roughly 400 years or so (at current use rates) of oil reserves that we currently know about. Most of that is on the Green river formation which takes up all of Colorado, Wyoming and Utah. Some estimate that this is roughly 4 trillion barrels alone, others claim about 2 trillion. The Dakotas also have a large shale oil reserve. These combine to dwarf all of the middle east's reserves. Thankfully environmentalist's have made this impossible to obtain.

How do you extract oil from sand?
Oil does not absorb into sand. It coats the sand allowing you to then pick up the now contaminated sand. Mechanics use non clumping kitty litter and this does actually absorb the oil. Lay a 1-2'' layer of kitty litter onto the oil spill and let stand 5-20 min depending on the amount of oil and the texture of the surface it is on. If the litter is completely saturated simply remove with a dust pan or shovel and repeat this process until the litter is no longer being saturated with the oil. Take a broom or brush or even your shoe and make a scrubbing motion with the litter into the oil stained surface to remove any residual oil and oil stains. Discard and your done
