There is really no Big Oil…just big consumers.
When you give your car away, and opt for an electric car…unplug everything you own and go totally solar..then you are ready to move to clean sources.
But as long as we consume, they will produce.
Not really, because world economy depends upon oil unfortunately. So as long as there’s oil, we’ll use it, and only when it becomes rare and expensive will people officially move onto other types of energy. And again, it won’t be the cleanest or most efficient, just the cheapest.
why would you listen to a guy thats doesn’t practice what he preaches. First off, CO2 is not a pollutant. Second people buy what they want and sell what they want. If you want to pay more for less by being “green” whatever that is, then just do it.
go to nuclear and solar power.
One big oil guy is T. Boone Pickens, and he has seen his own oil wells beginning to go dry and is looking for other sources of energy out there. He’s come up with a plan for America using wind and solar power, and natural gas for transportation. I’m sure he’s on the right track because I already have purchased 2 cars that run on natural gas, and I love ‘em! They run MUCH cleaner than gasoline powered cars and they are sooo much cheaper to fill up, too ($10). Anyway, that’s my take on the issue; just do an end run around big oil and buy cars that run on something else. I’m including my sources below so you can learn more about it!
OPEC is worse than the Mafia.
Actually the Mafia people that I knew were not heartless.
They were more like Robin Hood than “hoods”
And the Big Oilmen that I knew before OPEC was formed
used to joke about “The stupidity of Americans like you
when you don’t object to paying $1.00/barrel for something
we get from the ground for pennies ”
(This was in the late 70 s /Invitational Dinner in Iran for
nearby Oil Producing Areas (Iraq/Kuwait/Saudi/etc)
It is difficult to understand how Big Nations will go to
war and take over countries and not walk away with
the one asset that would help their citizens the most
O-I-L !!!!
Shakespeare would have provided a scene like
this “we dead soldiers who gave up our arms,legs,
lives for you leaders want to know why —if these
were our enemies,why do you leave them with the
good possessions which they will later use to
dominate the world !”
