There's now a Canadian consensus on climate change

But they recycle.

But they recycle.

Sure they do... Why, just think of the amount of cardboard packaging that a 3/4 ton truck can haul to the recycle bin each and every week?

They can also haul their bicycles to the trail to go riding. And of course get to the more remote ski hills. Might even buy lift passes with the money saved on fuel costs.

Heli-skiing is definitely the best way to go

Indoor weed. A necessity of every green function.

Also essential ingredient in the production of fossil fuels.

You have to dry out for a week first then you can produce fossil fuel while ingesting indoor weed. Too bad protests don't require piss tests.

The oil industry has no idea how prolific the shale oil/gas will be coming from these tight formations nor the life-span of the wells

Initial production rates are high, but they fall off like a brick in short order.

As evidenced by the ever increasing supply of shale oil.

huh, Walter... huh!... OPEC has refused to cut production in a move to see just what low price threshold some of the U.S. shale oil initiatives will bust at...

What crap. Shale oil is profitable well into the low 40's. Saudis wants to bury Russia because Russia supports Iran.

Right now, no one knows what the expectations on the wells are, this is new territory.

As mentioned, IP (initial production) is high but falls off very quickly. The question will be; once the production stabilizes, what will the bopd look like and for how long will they produce?

People care about climate change--until presented with another, more immediate problem. People generally don't care about possible future risks, even serious ones. And climate change is probably just going to make existing problems worse--like the pine beetles in BC. We've had many pine beetle infestations in the past. It's quite natural. But because it's just a tad warmer now, the infestation is much worse.

And we know that pine trees have always been gowing there.

There has never been a problem with climate change and there never will be. The problem is people change because of constant eternal climate variability. Of course the advent of the Nation State, it seems almost certain now, was not well thought out with respect to following the climate conscious herds who knew better than to plant roots on a planet subject to frequent radical climate change.
