In response to the 1973 oil embargo imposed by OPEC, the U.S. implemented several measures to mitigate the impact of rising fuel prices and fuel shortages. This included the establishment of the Strategic Petroleum Reserve to stockpile oil for emergencies, promoting energy conservation, and encouraging the development of alternative energy sources. Additionally, the government introduced fuel economy standards for vehicles and sought to diversify its energy sources to reduce dependence on foreign oil.
