Pump Gaia for all she is worth.
Go Doug!
(I’m a passing acquaintance, Doug having been my boss’ boss at Great Plains / Microsoft in Fargo, North Dakota, doncha know!)
Drill Baby Drill!!!!
What’s that sound I hear?...............
Oh, yeah.......The wailing and gnashing of teeth of the environmentalist greenie weenies!................
Tommy Norris’s fault
That was fast.
This is just the beginning!........................
Let’s hope it shows up at the gas pump. It will be a plus if Cali isn’t killing the rest of us with its CDL-giveaways, too.
Fill up the SPR.
When the price drops..................
How Dare You!
Drill Baby Drill!
We also need to get back to harvesting our own timber and mining and processing our own rare earths.
Mining the rare earths is not the problem. Refining them is. It’s a really nasty business................
Lol!
I was surprised, a few days ago, to look up the process of refining crude oil on-line. It now includes multiple hydrogen sulfide baths to make almost complete removal of sulphur possible for petroleum products. This is all closed-loop so that only sulphur is really accumulated.
I would think we could do similarly far better than China at processing rare earths.
Most of it is coming from two areas. The Delaware Basin and the Midland Basin, both of which are in the Permian Basin. Although the conventional production occurs over a much larger area, these two “shale basins” are about 100 miles by 100 miles across.
That’s great. Now what’s being done to re-incentivize oil companies to build new refineries, as the existing ones are decrepit and the hypermanic environmentalism of successive congresses saw too many laws passed penalizing such construction?
