This would be less of a problem if we were allowed to build any pipelines or new refineries closer to the sites of extraction. 
But we have built nothing like that in over 30 years. We haven't been allowed to. 

The problem with building pipelines would be NIMBY. Oil refineries built closer to the extraction sites would be more technologically feasible, but you're talking a huge capital investment.
