I like oil. Hydrocarbons are the solution to all problems.

My current hydrocarbon solution to a problem? I really want a propane torch to deal with all the global cooling that’s going on in my alley.

It’s really getting in the way of me being able to burn more hydrocarbons to go fast.

The report says the carbon liabilities — that is, the social cost of the carbon pollution that will come from developing their fossil fuel reserves — of the “big five” firms, based on a conservative estimate of $50 per tonne, is $320 billion, outweighing the whole of Alberta’s GDP, which it pegs at $309 billion.

In a scenario where polluters were paying $200 per tonne of carbon emissions, that liability would add up to $1.99 trillion based on their proven and probable reserves of oil and gas, according to the study.

hahahahahahahahhahahhahahhahaha ahhhhhhhhahahahahhaahhahahhahahahahahahahahahhaha

and it clearly states that it would be end users who pay the carbon liability anyway. so the source doesn't mean shit. If you want to see this for what it really is, look at how much money the government is about to steal from us in terms of taxes.
