Of course, by the time off-shore drilling could produce anything (in about 10 years if we start drilling today), there will be no need for it if we have already moved a huge amount of our energy consumption to non-oil sources.

Here we are going to look at the best available figures for offshore drilling, specifically the areas that are currently off-limits. That's what the fight is about.
First, how much oil we consume and how much we "produce":
The bottom line is that we consume a heck-of-a-lot more, close to twice…

This is my third and final post about the state of Japan's renewable energy efforts and other measures that are vital to prevent further climate change and to wean the country from fossil fuel and nuclear power. In my first post, I covered the public-health impacts of climate…
Because the three-dimensional world has had me in a headlock (and a heat-wave), I'm tardy in passing on the news that ScienceBlogs is hosting a new blog, Next Generation Energy, that is slated to run from July 9 to October 9. On this blog, Seed editors, ScienceBlogs bloggers, and outside experts…
Peak Oil is a controversial concept. Some people actually think that the production of oil in nature is continuous (which is a tiny bit, but hardly at all, true) so we can keep pumping oil out of the ground and it will just keep being produced by tiny microbes. But aside from that particular, and…
You're looking a bit wrinkly and white haired yourself and Paris does a wonderful job elevating the dialog with that b*tches comment.
Maturity is a good thing, the childishness of Obama and his supporters, not so much.
In response to Joel's thoughtful comment regarding the childishness of Obama's supporters:
Neener neener! McCain started it! Pffffffffffft!
"Maturity is a good thing, the childishness of Obama and his supporters, not so much."
I'm no fan of Obama, but hey, you gotta respond with something. Taking the high road isn't a very effective strategy in American politics. ;-)

Did you just waste several seconds of your life typing out a rebuttal to the Paris Hilton Energy Plan?
LOL. Yes, I guess so. Obama's is the best, Hilton's is the 2nd and McCain's is atrocious and thus at a distant 3rd place.
This may literally be the very first intelligent thing I've ever heard of Paris Hilton doing. A mind is truly a terrible thing to waste, and it appears she actually has one.
I have heard rumors a long time ago that she is actually very smart, but "plays ditzy" for cameras because that's what pays the bills. She just outed herself and will have to start nurturing a very different image from what was until now.
Now she is indeed "legally" blonde. Yet it amazes me how rumors go on as: many unintelligent people like Paris Hilton is actually very smart in real life. Then who is the actual stupid, really?
