I do not think you will find ONE SINGLE THINKING HUMAN on the planet that does not understand the importance of conservation.<br /><br />btw, there are new nuclear technologies using Thorium. The waste from it can be reused, and does not create "waste water."<br /><br />Regardless, people ARE talking about conservation. I know I am...I have walked around the house for the last 25 or so years screaming at the top of my lungs, "Can't y'all learn to turn a damn light off when you leave a room?

I believe that's the way we need to move in the long term.<br /><br />We have discovered incredible reserves in the Dallas, TX area, right here in the Shreveport area, and also in upstate New York. The new shale technology has literally allowed us to tap reserves that will last for up to a century (by some estimates). And, companies are exploring other areas right now that may be just as rich as these three finds.<br /><br />And, Paul is right. The areas Obama proposes opening up are going to be extremely expensive to explore...probably prohibitive at current crude prices. And, that's IF Congress ever lifts the ban.<br /><br />I'm also a big believer in Solar energy. But, the technology is just not there yet to make it affordable on a broad scale.Andyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10945901944078164054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13313594.post-6470121442108855132010-04-04T01:05:48.604-07:002010-04-04T01:05:48.604-07:00A dumb decision by Obama.

Untapped oil reserves in the US are a "drop in the bucket" compared to US demand and the massive supply they get from the Middle East.<br /><br />The US needs energy security. They should abandon their need for imported oil and embrace electric vehicles - which are in turn charged by the electricity grid, which should be powered by an increase in wind, solar, tidal, geothermal and possibly Thorium energy.Neil Cameron (One Salient Oversight)https://www.blogger.com/profile/03143948543305522865noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13313594.post-35353271312589948532010-04-03T09:36:38.205-07:002010-04-03T09:36:38.205-07:00Hi Paul,

Do NOT bother to tell anyone that the area that Obama approved for drilling is off the East coast and he also did away with drilling "permanently" in areas like the West coast and Alaska, where 75% of our reserves are. Try that on, he DID AWAY with drilling where the KNOWN oil is.<br /><br />Not to mention that his "drilling" cannot happen until Congress lifts the ban in place. Like that will ever happen as long as Congress is led by the buffoons currently in office. <br /><br />Just out of curiosity, wonder how much wasted money we are going to spend to fuel a plane that is the ONLY one of its type. Does this require retrofitting every US base on the planet? <br /><br />If you think that Palin is stupid compared to Obama, there is a HUGE perception problem.Paul Mitchellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07825674914008378242noreply@blogger.com
