I'm the president of bp and I want you to know that oil is now sustainable because our chemists have figured out how to make it out of ground up brown children

Once they figure out how to spend .9 gallons of gas to compress decaying bodies into 1 gallon of gas I'm pretty sure gravefracking will be the next gasoline revolution

I read an article that had a statement from the security that tried to convince me that the protesters were being very aggressive and that officers were getting "injured". Then the very next sentence was a glossed over mention of pepper spray and tear gas being used on the crowd. It was pretty slimy.

They usually pepper spray and tear gas aggressive people i dont see how that contradicts what they said

We arent running out of oil and climate change is not nearly the apocalypse you think it is. People dropped the peak oil sctick in the 70s and scientists stopped saying we are all gonna boil,freeze, drown twenty years ago. You watch too many movies and "documentaries."

I dont know if it directly gave you sad brain AIDS or this just facilitates it. A question for the ages

hmm tens of thousands of bad actors or millions in the wars caused by land loss from rising seas and hundreds of millions if not billions in the wars caused by the loss of arable land everywhere else better bust out the moral calculator for this one

stars will flicker and die, worlds will wither and dry

I like to think that there are other civilizations in the universe that are watching us destroy our planet, treating Earth's demise as a game show. Sort of a "what will humans gently caress up next" type of thing

Why don't we just dismantle it first? Nationalizing it seems like an unnecessary step.

on top of the methane produced by factory farmed livestock, in NC they have an unreported problem with pigshit lagoons constantly leaking into waterways and killing off everything that doesn't thrive on poo poo ( hence you still posting ;) ). There was also that hurricane a decade or so ago that swept up all the pigshit and kindly shared it with everybody

How is this even a discussion anymore?

In case you guys arent following the Dakota pipeline protests some archaic dinosaur robber barons are stealing native american tribal land so that they can save a couple bucks on transport costs. Some "private security" set dogs on the people peacefully protesting the almost certain reduction and contamination to their drinking water and destruction of their cultural lands.

Thats just one tiny issue with an industry that is furiously fighting to keep pumping ludicrous amounts of carbon and methane into the atmosphere as we march seemingly inexorably towards 2° of warming.

Nationalize, dismantle, seize the assets of every executive, liquidate every piece of equipment and launch the oil into the sun. Use those billions of dollars to set up sustainable energy sources and prepare for the apocalyptic future that lies ahead of us.

I've seen this on Facebook feeds, but only the sort of obnoxious liberal ones, the sort of progressives who share a lot of stupid political memes, so I hadn't been paying too close of attention, but it does seem that there's a real media blackout on this issue.

Nationalizing it wouldn't make it any better though, you poor naive fool. Private industry may be somewhat evil, but government is wholly incompetent and I can promise you: the only thing worse than evil is incompetent evil.

A decade ago, try 17 years, and that's mostly just dirt and runoff.
