Wtf is this supposed to be
While I appreciate that this guy is trying to get more competition, it seems like a cop out.
We had a ‘lower prices or else’ statement, they chose to respond ‘lol k’ and then did nothing. He should tax the fuck out of them, AND get the competition minister involved.
If you’re gouging on vital products, you’re fucking scum.
Yes please
Christ, all day, every 30 minutes? I’m tired just thinking about it
One of the Tailings ponds I’m familiar with is 9 km x 6 km in size…54km2
To To put this in perspective, Giant Mine and Faro mine, which are much, much smaller mines, have cleanup bills around 4-5 billion.
Albertans have gone all in on difficult to extract oil that is sold at discount… On a market that’s controlled by a cartel [OPEC].
E: Faro mine is 25 km2 in size. the current mineable footprint for the oil sands 1,030 km2 in size.
I am left leaning, and agree with the content of the article, but taking potshots during an article undermines the message.
I have a goose-stepping relative I want to send this to, but he wouldn’t read past the left leaning narrative
Yeah definitely. But some people are into that
I think between her legs but covered by the kimono. Idk I’m not the bot that drew this
More vitriol please.
How are they false? You still need metal, rubber, and plastics to make an EV, in similar quantities to create cars, because you are creating cars. There is an environmental impact associated with this.
As I said, you certainly get the C offset due to not burning fuel, and definitely helps, but it’s not a be all end all solution.
As I continue to say, we need a holistic approach to the climate crisis, without oil.
I don’t know why you think I’m a o&g mouthpiece, when I would happily watch those companies and Petro states beg for alms down by the river.
I’m not suggesting a one size fits all. Individual + centralized is the way to go vs. JUST one or the other
You’re missing my point. EVs do provide some value in their immediate offset of Carbon. No question. My point is that on a broader scale, unless we REDUCE OUR DEMAND for individual transportation, and have systems in place that can replace that need, any solution we offer is going to be hugely environmentally detrimental. if 100 people need 100 cars to live, that’s still 100 cars we have to produce. If 100 people can get by on 3 busses and 15 EV scooters, we are better off.
Just corporations providing the best service for the lowest prices /s
I’m very anti-privatization of health care. People wonder why.
EVs are not a climate solution. You still get most of the negatives of ICE cars. However, the development of the technology is still needed. We need better battery tech. We need to figure out how to recharge batteries and how to manage their wastes.
When it comes to transport, the greenest solutions are centralized, as they substantially reduce demand of materials.the problem with centralized transportation, is that until you get it to the point where you have 24/7 coverage with small wait windows, people will still prefer a car. Why wait for a bus, when I can turn the key and go? Bonus, I don’t have to deal with people or transfer.
Love this
Charmander takes the cake
I’m a train wreck - you can’t look away out of morbid curiosity
This is fantastic. I really like the oil painting vibes
