On a side note...Oil Markets Face A 200 Million Barrel Glut In 2021 | OilPrice.com

The spot price for light sweet crude /bbl is $52.00 as of today... If there is a glut that will bring down pricing to $30.00/bbl. That's good for the people.... Actually governments in Europe will be proped up by their increase in profits....

They can't break even at $30.

Biden has no problem with the fossil fuel industry.......just the American fossil fuel industry.

Exactly, which is why he's insisting we buy oil from the terror states he has backroom deals with, then have it sent here on CO2-spewing ships, trains, and trucks. The trained seals clap on cue, as you see below:

He had no problem with oil pipelines in Ukraine and Syria but stopped the U.S one on first day.
He wants the U.S to be reliant on other countries. I imagine for bribes.

U.S one??..It's a Canadian pipeline meant to ship their oil to Gulf Ports for export. Our gas prices have squat to do with it.

Canadian Tar Pit Oil is one of the dirtiest to process. That's why it's at about 29 bucks a barrel. What Canada is trying to do is to get the US Refineries to process their oil. It's not for export. No one really wants the crap.

Scourge Of The Seas: How China Is Tackling The Ocean's Plastic Problem

How China deals with plastics is just one if its ongoing policy efforts to build an “ecological society.” By taking action, especially through its imports ban, China can help galvanize worldwide efforts to deal with plastics in a more circular way.

DW: China is doing good stuff and they’re doing way more than the U.S., and should be congratulated. We should celebrate what’s happened. It’s the shock that the world needed, to onshore technologies and solutions. I call it the “the biggest land-based tsunami” the world has ever seen. And most of the western municipalities have no idea what to do. All are getting hit with the plastics problem that they used to move offshore.

Woodring notes Australia has said some of its cities will bury more plastic in landfills as a result. On the other hand, the European Union has responded more thoughtfully, announcing that, by 2030, all plastic packaging (which accounts for about two thirds of the region's plastic waste) must be recyclable, with a goal of recycling 55% of plastic waste by then.

Canada has deep discounts on their heavy sour crude because, as you said, its crap.. They don't want the US to refine Canadian oil to sell in the US. They want to ship it to Port Arthur to be turned into specialty products and shipped overseas to sell.. They can make higher profits.

90% of the plastic in the ocean comes from just 10 rivers.
Spoiler alert. It's not ******,

The USA is so far behind the EU for recycling it's not even dismally funny. We are about 25 years behind. 20 years ago, we had plenty of recycling companies in this city but they are all gone today. Only the Municipal Recycling at the Dump still exists. We could (and should) learn a lot from the EU about recycling and electric production but seem to fight to retain our Fossil Fuel dominance.

Fossil Fuels will always be around. There are just too many uses for it. But the Tax Payer paying for new wells to be found has become stupid. I can see why the Hard Core Republicans (not thepartyoftherumpers) are against anything that they feel can harm the growth of the Petroleum Industry since their major donors are from that Industry (The Koch Brothers and such) but if there is a better way, we need to utilize it along with the fossil fuels. On that, we can learn from the EU and then do a better job at it.

The big battle..these folks see their influence and power on the wane..and they're not liking it!

As Biden vows monumental action on climate change, a fight with the fossil fuel industry has only begun

Joe Biden had long promised to become the climate president, and on Wednesday he detailed far-ranging plans to shift the U.S. away from fossil fuels, create millions of jobs in renewable energy, and conserve vast swaths of public lands and water.
“This is not a time for small measures,” Biden said at the White House, adding that the nation had already wasted precious years
But as he detailed his plans, the gas, oil and coal industries were already mobilizing on all fronts. From an oil patch in Alaska to state capitals to the halls of Congress, the industries and their allies are aiming to slow Biden’s unprecedented push for climate action and keep profits from fossil fuels flowing. Republican attorneys general from six states wrote to the new president, warning him not to overstep his authority. GOP lawmakers attacked his executive orders as “job killers.” And the petroleum industry revived television ads promoting drilling on federal lands.
Industry executives expressed dismay at the scope, speed and direction in which Biden is heading, saying he is going much further than President Barack Obama ever did, while environmentalists said the danger that Earth faces is far more dire now than it appeared during Obama’s tenure and requires an extraordinary response. Last year essentially tied with 2016 as the hottest year ever recorded, and scientists say the planet is speeding toward irreversible damage.

In barely a week in office, Biden has moved to rejoin the Paris climate accord, halt the controversial Keystone XL pipeline, impose new limits on oil and gas production, and mandate climate change as a priority across every federal agency.

I dont want to walk, ride the bus or a bicycle when I go someplace

and I dont want to pay $5 a gallon for gas either

we are becoming a disfunctional society and libs are to blame

justinacolmena

So are you a commie? Do you want to nationalize oil so you can have it cheap?

You know you can go back to 1950 when gas was about 16 cents a gallon.. In today's money that would be $3.70 a gallon. Gas is still a bargain. It hasn't kept up with housing, healthcare, groceries, the cost of education or the cost of automobiles.

My source says $.16 in 1950 is $1.74 in 2020

Would any guilt-ridden white libs care to guess where those rivers are?

The problem there is, the US has equally price heavy crude so there is no benefit to the US to have the Canadian Crap piped all that distance.

Canada has their own ports. Vancouver Port, Prince Rupert, and 25 other major ports. But Canada has laws that prevents the crude oil from being dispatched out of their ports and won't allow the pipelines to the port to get it there. Canada only has 4 major Oil Refineries and they limit the output of those. Canada has painted itself into it's own corner.

Biden plans to shut down our fossil fuels industries. This will not decrease our immediate demand for fossil fuels. It merely forces us to buy it elsewhere.

Say goodbye to all forms of individual liberty.

This killing war cannot start soon enough.

This killing war cannot start soon enough.

If the Democrat Party gets HR1 (with recently proposed massive nationwide changes to federal election rules included) turned into law, there will be individual liberties only for Democrats working in in government.

On its face, the proposed bill is unconstitutional. Means of choosing electors are reserved for THE LEGISLATURES OF THE STATES IN THE CONSTITUTION. States have the exclusive rights to disallow mass mail in ballots, require verification of signatures, cleanse their registration rolls of dead people and people that have moved to another state (or to another precinct in their own state), determine the TIME OF DAY that the polls are CLOSED and to set all requirements that apply to voting IN THEIR STATES.

Nancy Pelosi and the Democrat Party do not have the right to circumvent the constitution.

To hell with the Democrat Party!

Unfortunately, this will have to go all the way to the SCOTUS if it is codified. SCOTUS is just as politically driven as the rest of the Washington swamp. There's no telling how it will rule on any given issue.

Here is a pdf file of the proposed bill:

What's hilarious is that MOST oil wells and shale in the US are heavy crude.

Tight oil (also known as shale oil, shale-hosted oil or light tight oil, abbreviated LTO) is light crude oil contained in petroleum-bearing formations of low permeability, often shale or tight sandstone.

$5 dollar gas coming your way.

More like 15 dollar. These idiots have no clue how stupid the progressive left is.

When they are starving to death it will be too late for them

America is under Judgement. Cutting off your fuel supply is one of the Judgements. You stupid deluded Americans love fire bombing whole cities, starving whole nations, nuking cities, and you love your murderous lies. Your mountains of bitter fruit are witnesses against your habitual lust for legalized murder, you call wars.

Retarded American public doesn't realize that they are the target. Americans are thrilled that European countries are being destroyed by USA's war on Russia, and the American public is under the same/similar curse. Enjoy the ride to death.
Add to the curse, Americans worshiping homosexuality and race mixing.

Come on, why so negative? Give Biden and Dims a chance. They'll have gas up to $5 a gallon in no time.

Wow, did this prediction ever turn out be true or what??? Except gas went up to $8 in some places. Biden administration never screws up halfway, they go whole hog!

LOL! Just gassed up for $3.49/ Should have taken your victory lap in July~

BTW..logic would dictate that if it was Biden's faulty the prices went up..then it's to his credit that they've gone down, right?

Unless, of course, you're one of those hacks that apportion all blame to your opponent..and all credit to your side.

Never-mind..the question was rhetorical...
