Canada home to giant source of methane

We have more than enough methane gas in Wyoming to keep the US supplied for years, but the market is so low they quit gathering it.

I cannot imagine where you heard they quit producing Natural Gas in Wyoming. Far from true.

I was part of the 2003 expansion for this Natural Gas pipeline expansion that started in Wyoming.

There are quite a few active Natural Gas Pipelines in Wyoming. Take a look at the dayly flows at:

Yet more proof we are awash in hydrocarbons. Since methane can be converted (or “refined”) into any other hydrocarbon such as gasoline, the only issue is what the cost of the final product will be. Thus, any concern over “peak oil”, “sustainability” or any other liberal fretting is pure sophistry.

To the extent that people are in denial of these facts and advocates policies based on that denial, we endanger our liberty and prosperity. An example of this is to pretend that wind power (aka bird blenders) is somehow economically rational when all costs are taken into account, or that we must drive tiny cars that have much higher death rate.

Leftists are so much in denial that they even insist that we must use light bulbs that contain mercury when we clearly prefer other types of bulbs. But wait. The day will soon come, as surely as the run rises in the east, that leftists will scold us for using those dangerous bulbs and insist they knew about the health hazard all along.
