We have more oil reserves now than we've ever had before.

So where did it all magically appear from?

New discoveries, no one truly knows how much oil is under the two ice
caps for example whilst new discoveries are being made under the
Southdown's for example.

so basically a 'reserve' is a number on a piece of paper that may or may
not be related to actual extractable oil in the ground in a place where
it can be extracted?

Oil companies share prices are directly related to their reserves:
Their directors remuneration is directly related to the share price.

Cui Bono?

Purrlease.

Just because green u washed are talking up their case doesn't mean the
oil companies aren't.



Anyway, the 'problem' seems to be solving itself. Temperatures have
stopped rising.
Tell that to the penguins

Like our ancestors should have done, no doubt, at the end of the last
ice-age when the penguins (or their ancestors) had to either move
further north or adapt...


So you admit that we are still in a cycle of highly rapid global
warming, then?
