The will to use it!


Even in North America, we are not running out of fuels. Between the Bakken, the Marcellus Shale, Alberta’s tar sands, and two centuries worth of coal, North America is rich in fossil fuels. What we now face is our own decision not to use them.

Bonus quote:
One of the most extensive oil deposits in the world—the huge Bakken Formation— underlies North Dakota and Saskatchewan. The Bakken holds up to 500 billion barrels of oil, double the proven reserves of Saudi Arabia.
Didn't I just say something like this?

I LOVE Wyoming!

Some day the cost of oil and/or our lack of control over our own lives and policy will override the idiots who refuse to allow us to tap our own resources.
