I'm a college graduate that also happens to be a certified arborist. I see that I'm making far more of a difference than a corporate lawyer in training. (of course corporate law is necessary, how else would companies fuck each other as well as us "plebians" (as you seem to think those of us who don't do your job are?))

Urban trees are not a vital component to the health of our environment. I almost ended up in the same profession. |

BTW, the corporate law thing---"Big Oil is going to pay for my law school while I help them impact the environment less..." It wasn't unfounded, just forgotten by all but me. If you are truly trying to help the environment, good for you, but I can't help but doubt your motives, especially considering the above quote. "It's easy to be certain, one only has to be sufficiently vague." |

And what better way than working by your enemy and trying to make it less evil. "Keep your friends close, and your enemies even closer." -Jesus Oh, wait, that wasn't Jesus, or was it? Trust me, I am on your side. I am working to get myself in a position of power so that I can make a difference. We are all just pons... You have to rise above that to make grand changes. You'll vote for me some day. I have to get some rest, but it has been fun... |

Thank you for an enjoyable discussion, I wish you the best in your endeavours...and I truly plan to further research your posuition, as I hope you will mine. Goodnight, and I wish I was in Alaska as well...it seems like paradise to me (I love cold weather). "It's easy to be certain, one only has to be sufficiently vague." |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 1268454 Australia 02/17/2011 05:02 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Oil will never come down in price. Consider a car engine. It has a specific capacity in which oil flows through to maintain a sustainable temperature to allow fluid operation. As you decrease the amount of oil below maximum capacity, the engines efficiency starts to drop. Once you remove all the oil from said engine, what happens. YUP you guessed it, it overheats. Quoting: Ratchet ThunderstudThis planet has a capacity in which we are steadily decreasing. Every nook and cranny below the earths surface is interconnected to allow the efficient production of said engine. Forget fossil fuels. The amount of oil running through this natural engine is being drained. the oil people know this, if you keep oil prices the same till it is drained, you no longer have the ability to profit from this empty well. they are simply maximizing their almighty dollar before the well runs dry. Why would you have reserves if the supply was limitless. why would you need to increase the cost of a product if the product is plentiful. if you acknowledge global warming than you acknowledge a limited supply of oil. the earths core needs this oil to keep the surface and atmosphere from boiling. if fossil fuels were present oil would be boiling up from every spot on the planet, think of all the living creatures over billions of years that have been consumed by the planet. There would be oil in every bucket of soil you dig from the ground.....to get back to the point.....it is limited, they know it, and they are starting to panic because soone or later there will be no oil to sell. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 20194145 Canada 11/18/2015 01:36 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Once we run out, big brother will take over renewable energy demand. It's simply a question of input vs output. Oil takes little input, with high output. As (public) technology advances, so will the ability to proces low input, high output renewable energy solutions. but as most of us here forget, nothing comes from nothing. These things take time. Thus creating a nasty creature that has grown in many of us, called monetary desire. We pursue this in an infinite amount of justifiable, and unjustifiable ways. Once the profiteering can no longer continue from oil, or necessity, and monetary desire, will catapult us into space and beyond with a much more intelligent, efficient way of traveling. It will also continue to climb in price until of course it doesn't. And the next wave takes over, which will be sometime in the next 20 years, and many will lose lots of money. And the smart ones will get richer. And things will carry on. (albeit without the united states) So in conclusion there is quite a lot left, and when we do run out, regardless of when, it is already abundantly clear(Once the fun of oil is gone) with what can be readily found and produced already, we will continue on. A new time , with new corruption, new profiteering, etc etc. Case closed. |
