Financial Times link is broken.

Thx, found a new one.

California, New York, New England, et al I’m sure would all be glad to take one for the team.

Yes, Libya is in turmoil but they are only a small producer of crude…4% of the world…So, please explain how oil shut up in price that much?…There has been no shortages anywhere, not even close.
OPEC is truly a criminal cartel aligned with the rest of the criminal elites in Government the world over.
Where’s that reset button?…See the latest “Let me fix that Headline for you” for a potential scenario.

No reason 4 lane highways in SK like Highway 11 can’t have a 130kph speed limit. We have way less traffic than most of the European countries that have that as a speed limit.

Pique Oil. Love it.
Is this where someone says, “I can’t drive 55”?

That’s a GREAT juxtapose Kate. You are on a roll today.
Can’t we find a way for them both to lose?

It could also be Peek Oil.
As in Peek-a-Boo, you can find me if you look.

Does this mean that the Brits are more productive than the Spaniards?

Oil price and environment are two completely separate things.
Yes, it does make sense to drive slower to save fuel. I’ve established that beyond doubt and anyone else’s opinion is not of significance to me.
But dreaming of saving Earth from bursting in flames by driving slower is simply moronic drivel.

Hmmmmm Pique Solar & Pique Wind as well . . .
Seems economic reality still trumps climate justice. Go figure.
“It’s All Over: Green `Gold Rush’ In U.K. Dying Fast
“You won’t get offshore wind money, you won’t get tidal energy money, you won’t get carbon capture and storage money because it’s all got to come from these same pension funds and they won’t trust the government.”
Cornwall, the poorest county in England, said five months ago it expected a “gold rush” of $1.6 billion in solar energy investments. Now, the U.K. government may get in the way.
The central government said this month it’s considering cutting incentives and reducing the size of projects, concerned that the above-market rates it promised through April 2012 may lead to too many solar farms.”
