Yes I do please explain. Maybe because Norway doesn't have an idiotic bureaucratic government like we do here in Canada.
is Frankfooter still blithering on about Norway & how Canada's government should have developed our oil and gas rather than private enterprise
this has been explained to him several times before i blocked him
the key points are
  1. Canada's government did try to drill for oil for serval years, but was unable to overcome the challenges of drilling in a harsh. cold environment
  2. Then Imperial oil (Exxon) was able to make it work at a place called Leduc, Alberta
  3. Oil & gas exploration in Canada requires large and ongoing cash flow infusions as every well depletes. This would have been a huge financial commitment. Govt chose universal health care instead.
  4. Oil & gas exploration in Canada is risky. Risks the govt should not take with taxpayers money.
  5. Norway is very close to oil markets. Northern Alberta is not.
  6. Norway was lucky their wells came in flowing,. During the initial exploration phase if they missed hole location by 20 km , it would have been a short lived money pit .
  7. there is no way in hell Norway would have been able to develop their resources under current Canadian environmental regulations
so as usual Frankfooter is wrong

Let's try this for the 1000th time...

Demonstrate mathematically (not theoretically) how each dollar collected in carbon tax improves the climate.

Will you distract because you have no answer like usual?
Or provide some unrelated article to distract even more?
Will you toss in Trump and/or Ford?

Let's see how creative you can get to wiggle out of this. I'll wait.
I don't have the time to try to educate someone as ignorant as you, skoob.
So read the Canadian government site and come back with real questions.

Norway drilled in the North Sea, that's way more technically challenging than Alberta.
You're just excusing more right wing failures, the failures of the 'free market' and the failures for conservative 'thinkers'.

Also, the Norwegian government must know deep down
climate change is BS. That helps with drilling in environmentally
pristine region for oil without inhibition. Action speaks louder
than words.

Except all new vehicles are electric and 87% of generation renewables.

There is no climate disaster. And if there is one then there's no way we can control it or stop it. The planet will do as it chooses.
Do you have a background in climate science before you joined Terb last September?

Weather they believe it or not they chose money and industry over it.

Have you ever met and talked to a climate scientist? I must have crossed path
with more environmental scientists in the field of atmospheric chemistry and
climate science than anyone on TERB. They are generally happy professionals.
I am sure in the upcoming international climate change conference in France
world's eminent climate scientists will spend quality time outside lectures on
the climate crisis travelling around. Those climate scientists I got to know are
the kind of people who enjoy life to its fullest. Here is a link to the page on
travel and hotel info for the 2024 conference scheduled on April:



Pay a visit to some of the nations' top climate scientists in
YorkU, UofT and Environment Canada. You will find out there
is little to worry about the upcoming climate catastrophe. You
may have to look around to find a free parking spot. Most of the
folks at Environment Canada drive to work.

How does Alberta shit the bed? You really believe these countries are going full green.
He will when Albertans say enough. Unlike the GTA Albertans and in fact Americans ( who have far more than pitchforks) They aren’t apathetic, and quite possibly someday.

Cuts off his LNG or Texas west and or his pension. How I wish I get to hear his whines then.

Maybe phrasing it differently might help?
Define disaster y2k. Some predicted Armageddon and that turned out to be much ado about nothing. Though a lot of IT professionals made out quite well.

and while I have no problems believing the climate has been, and is slowly warming. And I accept that human population growth is the reason why the pace at which is warming is slightly accelerating. I also accept that raping the planet for wood, water <<< how will poor Cecil and Bambi or you survive when it’s gone or naught but cesspools….And on that topic do you know Ontarians are pissing and shitting in a large chunk of the worlds fresh water supply like there is no tomorrow.

Etc and paving ( more fossil by product) paradise for your convenience has more to do with it. However that’s a visible thing, emissions aren’t and people prefer to be in the dark as much as possible.


Just what exactly does this Armegeddon look like. Last I checked nature has evolved for eons. Pretty sure the planet survived during and after the ice age. Pretty sure Chernobyl has too.

So what exactly scares people so much about change?

And if, even if, we all agree it’s going to be Armageddon…..why do the politicians and champions insist on things that won’t be done in time. It’s Armegedon after all….

/see any upgrades to the Hydro grids for starters
/have they stopped building in flood plains or on coastlines
??????????????

Why do try to troll threads instead of taking part in useful discussions?
Why do avoid answering simple questions and then accuse others of trolling?

A simple "I don't know" would suffice. No need to go on the attack if you're stuck for an answer.

Like I said, you should go to the IPCC and read all the reports.
I can't help someone so ignorant and unwilling to do even the most basic research.

Still no answer considering your "vast" knowledge on the subject.
More proof you're being played.
