# Crude Oil Awareness Pots Oil Can Tea Set By Pearl | Published 2008-05-21 | Eco Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/oil-cantea-set-crude-oil-crisis-reminder References: [designspotter](http://www.designspotter.com/product/2008/05/beutifuel-life.html) & [architekturkommando](http://www.architekturkommando.com/error.html) With crude oil prices now well over $100 per barrel, filling that gas guzzling SUV is really hurting the pocket. If that's not enough, perhaps you need another reminder of the diminishing supplies and voracious global demand. This tea set is designed by **Designkommando** (Germany) with a gold finish, oil can tea pot as its centerpiece. Gold, get it? Oil is getting so pricey, it might as well be put in the same category of expensive as the precious metal. So for the coffee or tea drinker, every time you pour from the tea pot, less and less of your favourite java or tea will be left - just like our draining oil supplies. A daily reminder for us to change our lifestyles. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.5/10 - Popularity: 20% | Activity: 46% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 30% men, 70% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Eco](https://www.trendhunter.com/eco) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Rising Crude Oil Prices:** Identify opportunities for alternative energy sources and technologies that can help reduce dependency on oil. - **Diminishing Oil Supplies:** Explore innovations in oil extraction techniques and sustainable energy solutions. - **Voracious Global Demand:** Investigate advancements in energy efficiency and conservation technologies to meet growing global energy demands. ### Who This Affects Most - **Energy:** Discover disruptive innovations in renewable energy sources and technologies. - **Automotive:** Identify opportunities for electric vehicles and alternative transportation solutions. - **Consumer Goods:** Explore sustainable packaging and product design initiatives to reduce environmental impact. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Playful Teapot Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/teapot-design1.md) - [Customizable Olive Oil Bottles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/paint-pour-gift-set.md) - [Cultural Tea-Inspired Health Pots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/origin-health-pot.md) - [Ceramic Olive Oil Jars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cugu.md) - [Portable Ceramic Tea Sets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hukou.md) - [Opulent Floral Tea Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/brew-to-a-tea.md) - [Iconic Artful Reflective Teapots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/alessi-9093.md) - [Connected Communicative Tea Sets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gptea-set.md) - [Automated Extraction Teapots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/reedesigned-teapot.md)
