Maybe someday we’ll have the sad face button. For now, thanks for the update.
What does it mean Gary? Where do we go from here? Is there solidarity with those tha pt take extreme action to force govt policies to change?
I am in the U.S. and we do call it trafficking. I don’t know what circle you run in, but in my circle, it’s trafficking. Then again, we call it the U.S. or the States. America is a continent. Actually about three continents.
You and whose army…
Pseudoscience, no crisis’: How fake experts are fueling climate change denial
Does Mriana support carbon capture and storage???
Yes, you are talking about the fake experts like Trump and the Koch brothers who are fueling climate change denial with “drill baby drill”, not as a means to develop renewable fuels but until there is no more oil and WWIII ensues.
This energy war has already started with Putin’s invasion of Ukraine for purposes of controlling Ukraine’s Nuclear, Oil, and Wheat production.
Russia’s Resource Grab in Ukraine
Ukraine’s extraordinary riches in energy, minerals, and agriculture are a prize for the Kremlin.
Russia’s motives for invading Ukraine vary from security fears to revisionist historical claims that a Ukrainian national identity does not exist. Energy security also looms large—in particular, Russian President Vladimir Putin’s determination to ensure the continued flow of Russian oil and gas to European markets, including through Ukraine’s pipelines.
But the far bigger prize eyed by Russia may be Ukraine’s extraordinary resource riches, including some of the largest energy, mineral, and agricultural assets in the world.
What does the article have to do with carbon capture? More broadly, what do any of your posts have to do with any of the others? You maintain a line of reasoning for about three posts, on your best day. Then you switch the subject.
What are you talking about and how does it relate? If you’re back to trolling, then you must be asking to banned.
Kamala Harris was way ahead of the climate curve.
What Kamala Harris’ California Roots Reveal About Her Environmental Priorities
Environmental groups have been quick to endorse Vice President Kamala Harris as the Democratic presidential nominee, touting the Biden-Harris administration’s climate accomplishments. Harris herself cast the tie-breaking vote to pass the landmark Inflation Reduction Act, which unleashed hundreds of billions of dollars for the transition to clean energy and electric vehicles, among other things.
But before she was vice president, Harris had a mixed record of tackling environmental issues as a California prosecutor — one that appears to have strengthened with time, advocates said.
As San Francisco district attorney in 2005, Harris created one of the first environmental justice units of any DA’s office in the country. The goal was to tackle pollution in the city that was disproportionately happening in poorer neighborhoods like Bayview-Hunters Point.
much more…
She waved her finger and said you are a very very naughty boy! Leader
Are you speaking from memory? Should I question your self-esteem?
You’ll find that I am not as patient as Lausten or Mriana.
I like to cut through the sophistry.
I know “Climate Change” can be endlessly “debate” - but here’s the bottomline.
For the As The Beat Goes On department:
… West Antarctica and its Thwaites “Doomsday” Glacier have been a major focus of scientific research in recent years due to the catastrophic impact its collapse would have on sea level rise. But other research in the last few years has demonstrated that melting in East Antarctica, where this heat wave is happening, is becoming equally troubling.
The recent warmth has posed a significant problem to the continent’s crucial ice sheet. Antarctica lost a staggering 280% more ice mass in the 2000s and 2010s than it lost in the 1980s and 1990s, according to a 2019 study published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. …

I am not going to read a bunch of unscientific posts from anonymous posters.

Rethinking the Willow Project: Did BLM Have Other Options?
by Romany Webb|Published May 10, 2023
On March 13, 2023, the Bureau of Land Management (“BLM”) approved a major oil drilling operation on the North Slope of Alaska. The so-called “Willow Project” will be developed by ConocoPhillips and involve the drilling of up to 199 new oil wells, spread across three well pads, along with the construction of various related infrastructure, including pipelines, processing facilities, roads, and boat ramps. All of this activity is expected to have serious adverse impacts on the local environment and nearby communities. It will also worsen global climate change. The Willow Project is expected to produce as much as 180,000 barrels of oil per day at its peak and result in around 130 million metric tons of carbon dioxide-equivalent over its lifetime.
Approval of the Willow Project runs directly counter to President Biden’s campaign promise to stop oil and gas drilling on federal lands. It is also counter to his administration’s goal of halving economy-wide greenhouse gas emissions by 2030 and reaching net zero emissions by 2050. The approval has angered many climate activists and others who see it as a “stain” on President Biden’s climate legacy. In the weeks since the approval was announced, the Biden administration has tried to paint a different picture, suggesting that it had no choice but to approve the Willow Project. But is that really the case? This post explores the scope of BLM’s authority to block oil and gas drilling on federally-owned land in situations where the land has already been leased to a private party for the specific purpose of developing oil and gas resources.
History of Oil and Gas Development on Alaska’s North Slope …
Lets get one thing straight.
Sad as this may be, we will keep drilling for oil until there is none left.
That will be in about another40 years, when there will be no more oil that can be recovered and the worlds industries will have to shift to non-fossil fuel energy:
Solar, Thermal, Hydro, Tidal, Wind, which we should have started to begin with, and leave all that carbon safely sequestered deep inside the earth.
