Peak Oil
In reply to the discussion: Enough oil no longer the problem [View all]BlueStreak
(8,377 posts)I had to give up because that very first statement is absolutely, provably wrong. At best, it is nothing more than a opinion by somebody who is comes to the subject with a unmovable bias. Gold did indeed drill deep below the sedimentary layer in Norway and produced oil in small samples. Others, particularly Russians, have achieved identical results. That does not prove that there is a vast amount of oil beneath the so-called "fossil" layers, but it absolutely disproves that first statement, and in turn calls into question much of the dogma drummed into the brains of "educated" western geologists.
You can't just ignore facts like that. Or maybe you can.
