You know the economy is bad when companies start telling senators to say "Oil and Gas don't pollute" in order to get people to buy more instead of less. Oil companies are officially desperate and running out of ideas.
I was just explaining to someone that the root of all problems in today's world is the "almighty" dollar. In this world, that expression is quite an understatement. These companies are still out to continue sales and revenue, although the evidence of global warming and destruction by its own inhabitants is right under their brown noses. They continue to claim that this global warming "thing" is just a big hoax, when the evidence even hits home. Cancer is one of the leading causes of deaths these days, caused by a broad amount of things, but as the author proves in this blog, gas emissions cause a variety amount of illnesses because of the plethra of harmful emmitants. This is just a theory, but I think that the growing amount of cancer and its causes are causing the greater amount of those with cancer and those that have died from cancer. Think about it: the exponentially growing population combined with our increased addiction to driving and gas leads to more people on the road, thus more emissions and more deadly toxins we constantly and unknowingly breathe in.
I think that instead of pushing for people to drill and buy, drill and buy, we need to start putting our efforts into creating resource conservation days endorced and enforced by the government and its entities.

Our past, present, and future U.S. senators did not get into their seats by agreeing with anything they were told. They are smart people and have the intellect to make their own opinions based off of what is best. I hardly believe that oil companies telling our senators that oil and gas do not pollute would be reason enough for them to spread it to their citizens.
ReplyDeleteThe real world is a hard thing to grasp and a hard place to live in. The real world is all about profit and money. You cannot get anywhere in life without it. On the contrary, you may get somewhere ‘after’ life if you dedicate yourself to life without luxury and only good. But…….. a life without money is down near impossible in the society that we live and have grown accustomed to. Maybe in another life or time this would have been possible. Oil companies are in the real world and provide the necessities that their employees and people around the world ask for to do greater things.
Global Warming is the biggest joke with the most money behind it. There has not been a bigger joke since then, except for, maybe, the swine flu. Global warming is just another media created frenzy that grabs the attention of paranoid people that will grasp onto anything and fight to ‘reverse’ and ‘fight’ for the issue that is controlled by media. Of course, the ozone is depleting, the ice caps are disappearing, and the earth is getting hotter. Take a look back in history, maybe thousands of years back in history, and see that the earth used to be in worse conditions than now. This ‘global warming’ trend is just a continuation in of the earth’s climate. Things are bound to change and we cannot stop it. I am not saying that we are not helping push toward this change, but we are not the definite cause.
