@desokell @comical_engr @ClimateSageO I doubt other societies aswell. In California the average iq is higher then the areas you listed. Californias intelligent and informed citizens have made the personal choice to produce their own power at a lesser cost and get paid top dollar for the energy they store.

Wake up humanity - you are being sold a lie. We often hear that renewable energy is rapidly replacing fossil fuels. But the latest data from the Energy Institute – Statistical Review of World Energy (2025) tells a more sobering story. Yes, from 2010 to 2024 solar energy grew by an astonishing 1,453% and wind energy surged by 471%, while gas grew only by 31% and oil by 15%. At first glance, this looks like real change is happening to our energy supply. But here’s the reality check: in absolute terms, solar and wind increased by 1,453 TWh and 471 TWh respectively, while gas and oil increased by 9,685 TWh and 7,099 TWh. Let that sink in. We are indeed producing far more renewable energy than ever before - but global consumption of fossil fuels is still growing, and at a much larger scale. This isn’t an energy transition. It’s an energy addition! We need to confront an uncomfortable truth renewables are not replacing fossil fuels despite trillions of dollars of investment. How much more will the transition really cost us?

@desokell @comical_engr @ClimateSageO You doubt the individual. Its best for individuals to produce their own energy needs The largest power plant in cali is residential home battery packs that feed the grid during peak demand Peak energy is folds more important then baseload Billions of humans is billions of panels

Fraser Institute "Policy makers should understand the full range of potential economic impacts of further increases in carbon prices, especially in a context in which major trading partners like the United States and China are not engaging in similarly aggressive GHG control policies."

Imagine sitting next to the greatest economic power in human history, Imagine sitting on some of the most precious and abundant resources in the entire world, Imagine having one of the cleanest supplies of abundant natural gas in the world and not being able to ship it anywhere, Imagine having so much oil that it literally oozes from the ground and yet limited pipeline capacity or permits to get it moving, Imagine taxing your citizens that are productive so harshly that they decide to move from the country they helped to build, How in the world did this happen?

Wow, that's quite an achievement to have even lower GDP growth over the last decade than Germany. And Germany did almost everything humanly possible wrong. Has Canada already joined the European Union, or did they stagnate all by themselves?

David sits in rarified air. the edgiest sense of humour and an unwavering commitment to a place better for us. But he does it in a way that speaks to my Gen X heart where he doesn’t protect my feelings he just pushes for truth. Happy 90 th birthday Mr. David Suzuki 🎉

@ericnuttall Careful, you might attract @andrew_leach over here to pollute your comment with all the reasons that Asia should be asking about carbon intensity equally across all suppliers. 3-2-1....

Just how many crude purchasers in Asia are asking what the carbon intensity is of the barrels they are desperately trying to secure??? Energy accessibility, affordability, and reliability above all...time to abandon Pathways and focus on delivering what the world actually wants!

Northern Gateway pipeline spent 10 years and $600M only to get rejected. Can Canada ever get another pipeline built?

Let me help @realDonaldTrump, @SecRubio, and the rest of the US government. Amendment to the 1st Amendment: Any ideology, including one masquerading as a religion, that preaches doctrines that are against the foundational tenets of the US constitution and its liberties and freedoms, and that has a long history of established violent supremacy is henceforth banned. Religions that are seditious to our civilization are banned. Hope this helps.

@AndreasShrugged @brithume Canadians are far too fragile to exist unto themselves. They would be eaten alive if they didn’t have a vastly superior power protecting them. You should go read a land acknowledgement and write a poem about it then sob yourself to sleep

Germans, after shutting down their perfectly fine nuclear power plants, they wanted to replace with Russian gas first, which then a few years later they wanted to replace with LNG shipments from Qatar. But who needs an industry, right?

“It’s not enough for Mr. Carney to sign the pipeline memorandum and leave it at that. More needs to be done to create the conditions to get the private sector to the table and start building, so Mr. Carney can achieve his stated goal of turning Canada into an energy superpower. The spike in oil prices due to the war in the Middle East is a reminder about the continued critical role of the energy sector.” theglobeandmail.com/gift/2d737d3a9…

@Electroversenet Here is a capsule of how monthly temperature has evolved since 1883 in 5 longest running stations in the UK 🇬🇧 . There is NO drastic change over the years

365 years of temperature data from central England, the world's longest running climate record, show no trend. Despite a six-fold rise in population and a surge in CO2, January temperatures have barely shifted since 1600. Likewise for July, the hottest month of the year, temperatures are virtually unchanged. Even during the coal-fired Industrial Revolution there was no sudden spike. The warmest winters on record occurred in the 1700s, the 1800s, and the early 1900s, long before modern emissions. Any warming appears slow and natural, with the slight modern uptick likely linked to two factors: 1) the urban heat island effect, and 2) Earth's gradual recovery from the Little Ice Age. If carbon dioxide truly controlled the climate, the CET record would shoot upward on the right. It does not.

We absolutely will grow energy market share in this region with construction of Woodfibre and Cedar LNG currently under way, Ksi Lisim's/PRGT and LNG Canada P2 approved and awaiting FID, Transmountatin undergoing expansion of ~360kb/d and REEF adding LPG exports of 56k/d boe

The Qatar strike immediately repriced 27/28 LNG prices. We saw some partial credit for that in LNG price exposed equities. It also immediately repriced the value of natural gas resource in nations with low geopolitical risk (Canada / US). We haven’t seen that valued at all in the equities yet. Do we have to wait to see resource change hands? Or will an onslaught of project FIDs do the trick.
