"Among his suggestions was California's decision to
decouple energy company profits from sales two decades
ago, keeping the state's electricity consumption flat
while the rest of the states have experienced a 60 percent increase"

What a load of fertilizer.

Less than 2% of the nations electric is generated by oil.

"On the malignant side, oil and coal consumption are
contributing to global warming."

The United States has one of the worlds largest reserves of
coal which could not only be used to generate electricity but can
be used to produce synthetic fuels for transportation (fischer troupe).

But of course the global warming boogie monster wont allow us.

I will make you freeper's a wager.
The largest oil reserves in the world are hiding in Alaska.
What say you?

More cr@p from a Clinton crony to control the masses.

"The largest oil reserves in the world are hiding in Alaska ".

Yo Dave! Hold up ... Is this a Steve Mcgarrett type hunch or do you have a stronger basis for this theory than Miss Cleo told you that?

The largest oil reserves in the World may very well be hiding in Montana and North Dakota.

The largest oil reserves in the world are hiding in Alaska.

Canada and Russia own most of the circumpolar region. Alaska is a small segment of the arc and its oil fields are of corresponding size.
