And ocean wave machines and thermal energy generation and solar and nuclear including fission AND fusion seemingly getting close to breakeven.
The bottom line is we have to get off the fossil fuel tit for transport and just use that precious recourse for making stuff which is what, 10% of the use for transport AND that use does not automatically generate greenhouse gasses.
@sonhouse saidAmerican democracy doesn't exist. The majority of Americans are not represented in government and you know it.
@Metal-Brain
No, that was the ABSOLUTE truth. We would NEVER go to the pathetic ultrarightwingnutjob sites you post since you NEVER are interested in the actual subject but ONLY in 'how can I weaponize this'.
Go on, you can say it, 'I HATE THE US AND WANT TO SEE THE END OF American Democracy'.
Come on, you can do it, just let it roll off your tongue, get that out of the way and we can maybe do an actual debate.
@metal-brain saidThat sounds like a good thing for the People in the US and Venezuela.
Venezuela has released some Americans that were caught attempting a coup. Biden must have lifted some sanctions to get that done. A deal must be in the making. Oil shipments should start soon.
@metal-brain saidWe have been buying crude from Venezuela for decades, and it appears, now, we will be purchasing even more. Venezuelan crude is considered poor quality, thick and sulfurous and requires extensive refining.
This is sad, but there is nothing you can do about it so you might as well laugh because it is hilarious before you have to get raped at the gas pump.

I was under the impression that
we had curtailed, but not stopped
Venezuelan imports.
@no1marauder saidYes. I agree.

Sure is odd that after the US attempted a coup to overthrow Maduro and called Guido the real president they are doing the deal anyway. I thought Jimmy Dore's comment that Maduro should have said "ask the real president of Venezuela" was hilarious.
But yeah, Russia's misfortune seems to be benefiting Venezuela right now. They are getting sanctions lifted while Russia is getting burdened with them. Maduro is lucky Biden's approval ratings are in the toilet right now.
@shallow-blue saidSome of these guys have
We'll see. You are good at predictions, not so good at ones that come true.
so many predictions, some
of them must come true.....right?
@contenchess saidI read that same article. I think it was dated June 17, 1971.
Some article I read said there was only 50 years of oil left in the world.
@vivify saidand when the wind doesnt blow enough to turn the turbines?
Hence, why we need wind turbines.
@metal-brain saidLol “Russia’s misfortune” at least they are not burdened with having their children murdered and their villages, towns and cities turned to rubble. Hopefully they continue to suffer the “burden” of sanctions until they leave Ukraine at which point the oligarchs arrested billions can pay for its reconstruction.
Yes. I agree.

It is good news for the Venezuelan’s though, who, to the best of my knowledge have not invaded a neighbouring sovereign state in any meaningful way at least.
@sh76 saidthe world gonna end in 10 years anyway...oh wait...
