Such a pristine lovely picture the NY slime paints for us all. Caribou frolicking in a vast tundra where birds sing and rabbits hop. If Hillary or Obama sed we are drilling tomorrow the NY slime would be calling it a barren waste land of no use to anyone
“a federally protected place of austere beauty that during a recent flyover was painted white by heavy snowfall”
THAT’S RACIST!!!!!
Yeah, but some of these people don’t know that. They will be out there marching to protect the penguins.
Yep, like clockwork...
Even the earthquake didn’t damage the pipeline.
Penguins taste like chicken.
Fishy, greasy chicken.
Sara’s fault! Hallelujah!
So, here's the deal:
Everybody who's ever visited there, vote NO.
Everybody who's ever known somebody who visited there, vote NO.
Everybody who's ever seen a postcard from there, vote NO.
The rest of you, vote for LOWER GAS PRICES.
Let's see how it turns out...
You can’t fart while exploring for or producing oil in Alaska without a permit, yet, our beautiful American landscape is polluted with hundreds of thousands of windmills whose useful life is 10 years. BTW, all of those windmills require enormous amounts of oil to be seviced each year and their only profits are the subsidies that the US Taxpayers give their owners. How are we poing to reclaim the lad when we have to remove these windmill carcasses? When I travel across the company I weep when I see the thousands of acres that are now eyesores.
SOB...were all gonna die but women and children first.
New York Times == Fake News
Keep in mind that ANWR is the size of South Carolina and the area set aside for drilling is about the size of the Los Angeles airport. I wish to hell they’d keep things in perspective.
Alaska isn’t pristine. It looks a glacier wrecked the place recently.
It may not look like much to you but to the endangered
Arctic rat lungworm it’s paradise!
Authors note: While the Arctic rat lungworm has not been
sighted in the area, the Southwestern Rat lungworm could
possibly survive under those frigid conditions an so the
Arctic Rat lungworm’s habitat must be protected.
Note #2. The Rat lungworm is not threatened by wind turbines
so those may be built there.
How are the doggies?
I suspect these morons have never hiked the beautiful tundra. They do not realize that it’s a little different than they believe it is.
And these asses never learn. I remember when they told us how the Alaska pipeline would destroy the environment. The literally caribou gather around it today.
It's a highway for bears ...
“An even shorter evaluation of the consequences of seismic testing is nearing completion. Within months, trucks weighing up to 90,000 pounds could be conducting the tests across the tundra as they try to pinpoint oil reserves.”
The same process is now gearing up offshore: http://freerepublic.com/focus/news/3710256/posts?page=5#5
The Trump Administration has opened the largest areas to exploration and development in US history. Now they are about to start mapping the deposits with sonic vibrations. Then they will bid on leases for production. It will probably take a few years to develop those fields, but they will then produce for decades - as long as the leases are awarded before Trump leaves office.
In the case of Alaska, the Arctic National Wildlife Reserve may well be the size of South Carolina, but the area expected to be developed (excluding the roads and a connection to the existing pipeline) is only about the size of Dulles Airport, outside of DC.
Without the product from this new field in Alaska, the existing Trans Alaska Pipeline is on track to become economically infeasible, as North Slope production declines, which would be devastating for the State’s budget.
The Federal revenue from these fields, and the high paying jobs and supporting supply chain from these developments will be a world class wealth creator for a generation.
MAGA!
And I am guessing they have never experienced a tundra mosquito...or a billion of them.
