How the Grinch tried to steal the oilpatch

1. The author seemed to concede the necessity of “transition” and that the Spawn and his environmental green priest were only wrong in not recognizing the necessity of fossil fuels to achieve it. That is the corporate cowardice in action as he is undermining his argument. Conceding to the unproven but politically bought and paid for hypothesis tells the public that you are guilty of original sin and whatever else you say or do, you have lost them.

2. So the global cabal demands we de-invest in the main fuel of our civilization, driving down its value. I’m going to bet that at a certain point, they will quietly buy up as much fossil fuel equity as possible, just before the brainwashed mobs realize they do need fossil fuels to survive. You know, just before civil war and riots break out and everything collapses. Then once they own it all, they can declare the climate emergency over and we will be allowed to use the fossil fuels that they now own entirely. At their exorbitant ‘new’ post-climate emergency prices.

   1. If it makes you feel any better, there won’t be any civil wars in Canada.

      Canadians will acclimate to their new cold and famished surroundings.

      1. It is called death.

3. “…This, in spite of the fact the world needs more fossil fuels to assist with the transition to cleaner forms of energy, which do not yet exist in quantities that will work effectively…”

   Which will never exist in quantities sufficient to replace petroleum or petroleum-derived products.

   1. Wind Turbines require up to 700 gallons of oils for lubrication, cooling and whatnot.
      Every bit of plastic and the giant carbon fibre blades, also require oil products.

      Those from “No OIL!” don’t understand that, and don’t care.

      1. Hmm, I wonder how much oil can be squeezed from a human cadaver.

         1. Depends on diet and age.

            1. Well, I’ve just eaten and I’m about to turn 70, so how much oil could I squeeze from a cadaver?
