Seriously, wind, solar, battery needs petroleum to create the products. Hydro has its risks also... Batteries are toxic...

Just askin.

It's not as easy as it appears.

I agree. Not only that, but these are INTERNATIONAL waters. If WE don't drill there someone else will. I know our systems and standards have problems, but do you really think that China, Venezuela, etc. have better drilling techniques and safety measures? I know I don't...

The bottom line is that SOMEONE is going to drill for oil there. You know how we know?... It's PROFITABLE. I would rather we do it than some 3rd world country.
