Danger of extracting fossil fuels

samedi 12 juin 2021 à 02:00

A growing problem: resistance to fossil fuel infrastructure now frequently downplays the main danger of extracting and transporting fossil fuels — that they might leak methane into the air, or be burnt and release CO2. This example does not trouble to mention it at all.

What's with these people? I get the impression that they are more concerned with who owns certain land or waterways than with whether civilization survives.

Ironically, the same can be said of the companies that want to extract the fossil fuels.

The reason not to build the Line 3 pipeline applies to every other new oil or gas pipeline, every new refinery, and every new well or mine: there is >no room in the world's carbon budget for any more fossil fuel infrastructure.
