I think the efficient speed limit idea works on many levels, and while unpopular at first to some, I think people would ultimately respect that this is a valid response short of a tax or shortages.
It certainly beats closing schools, like they did in Georgia.

I think the public would be much more receptive to improved fuel efficiency requirements, which are more obviously associated with conservation in people's minds.
