Climate change. I`m glad it changed back to normal again. But it will ebb again until the next solar cycle.

Al Gore: Global warming skeptics are this generation's racist

There is plenty of gas. Then we have to convert millions of cars to natural gas from oil. It will take decades and it hasn't started yet. Because what do you do first, build the natural gas stations or the cars? Likely fleets of trucks will start, if they have, and they don't yet. Trucks can have stations right in their yards.
National parks were made so huge because one hundred years ago Banff and Jasper had few people liivng there. Bigger than some European countries. Like they knew about hydrocarbons 100 years ago. Try not to give our leaders too much credit.
Nat Gas (sour gas) is two to three times abundant and will be used for turbine driven electricity generation. With current emission technology it is impossible to burn sour gas without killing **** loads of everything....UNLESS it is carbon capture (wink wink) and pumped back into the ground to be used for a solvent in the Williston Basin to regenerate current sweet and mid grade crude fields of the Northern Bakken in SK ND SD MT MN, WY plus Bakken kerogen Green River CO kerogen and more down to Mexico and the entire Caribbean gas fields. Using the electrical heating process with even more carbon credits for heating towns and cities with the geothermal heat by-product and we can all free green about living and working in the oil fields of northern US right through Sask to northern Sask and Alberta North West BC, offshore BC clear through to the Yukon and off shore Yukon and in the seas as far as Ellesmere.
Peak what peak? We just get to pay for it all as Global Socialists saving Gaia.
One day climate change skeptics will be seen in the same negative light as racists, or so says former Vice President Al Gore.
In an interview with former advertising executive and Climate Reality Project collaborator Alex Bogusky broadcasted on UStream on Friday, Gore explained that in order for climate change alarmists to succeed, they must “win the conversation” against those who deny there is a crisis.

I'm starting to think it was a good thing Bush beat him in the election.... friggin crack pot.
They need to win the conversation?
Obviously... and once they start providing facts, they might just do that. All they have are models and exaggerated statistics.
But until then.
But Prax, what about that evil hurricane that destroyed New York?
Indeed..... what about that? It fizzled as I expected a CAT 1 would and considering NY got hit by a worse one in the 30's and before then even, how does one explain that?
Oh wait, now I'm a racist.... oh noes!
WE don't even know how much oil and gas is sitting off the west coast because some short sighted liberal government in Ottawa put a moritiorium on drilling about 30 years ago.
Holy Climate Change Batman! What a meltdown! I think another poster is correct, his carbon credit company must be taking a HUGE HIT! Al Gore invested a lot of his money into the carbon credit sale scam so he has a lot to scream about.
No one thinks there is an oil field there that qualifies to what they call an "elephant", with over 30 billion barrels of oil. No elephants have been found since the 1970s. We use 30 billion barrels a year, and are only finding about 15 billion barrels, simple arithmetic says the price of oil will rise in a few years. Plus add political uncertainty and millions of new cars purchased each year and refining issues.
Says here we've been using more than we've been finding for decades.
The Oil Drum | World Oil Production Forecast - Update May 2009
"Key sources of future production are future discoveries. The chart below, from Colin Campbell's newsletter, shows that annual discoveries have been decreasing since the mid 1960s. It also shows that production has exceeded discoveries since 1984 which is clearly unsustainable"
Here it says we consumed only 4 billion barrels per year in the 1970s. Now its 30 billion per year.

I don't think I could spend more than five minutes with Al Gore before bitch slapping him. He is so condescending, like he is smarter than everyone, I bet Clinton even hated having to meet with him.
Article from Reuters stating that for past 5 years or so the oil industry has been finding about 15-20 billion new barrels of oil a year. The world consumes 30 billion barrels of oil per year. The arithmetic works against us here. As a result, cheap oil is never coming back. Peak oil doesnt mean oil will run out, it means all forms of energy will become more expensive. Hence, less pollution as we burn less, and less greenhouse gases. Al Gore wins!

No, once you get past peak oil, it means more pollution because you have tap into dirtier and more volatile reserves.
Hell no. You use your worst first Then you go for the sweet stuff. Heavy oil has something in it that is very very valuable. Sulphur.
Al Gore got swept up in the climate change debate to say the least he is out there on his
own trip through the universe. I must be one hell of a racist because I question almost
everything not just the story of climate change. Oh I think there is a measure of that no
doubt but it is a natural thing, it has been happening since the beginning of time. Climate
change was occurring for centuries and the present change has become noticeable and
people are reacting to it as if it has just begun. I sometimes wonder at the arrogance of man
thinking that we can stop, slow down or prevent a natural occurrence of nature.
I think we should put Al Gore and David Suzuki together on their thrones, side by side and
have them command the tide not to come in at the sea shore.
No I don't agree with Al Gore, but then again I don't think we as people should be allowed to
leave a mess for others to clean up. I have no problem with ensuring we are aware of
clean air and water. Just because the sky is not falling does not give us the right to pollute
our world. Gore is nuts, but then again Sarah Palin, and the Tea Party crowd are just as
crazy, but then again these assorted whack jobs on all sides provide us with public theatre
and our steady supply of political Entertainment Tonight as it were.
It is becoming so crazy we soon won't be able to take reality seriously.

I'm glad climate changed back to normal around here. I'm days away from one of the best harvests we've seen in a decades. High quality and heavy. Currently sitting at 22% moisture but after todays heat (30C) I'll be combining by the weekend.
Amen.
Amen.
Well the thing is, climate scientist said that normal climate may happen only as a precursor to massive global warming. I don't know how they came about it but it was a call to stay the course and keep up the pressure.
