Why is Gas SOO Expensive?!

Oil in the early 20th Century

Oil now

It used to be this easy.
















Now we have to do this.

Tar sand "oil" production

And this.











Which do you think costs more?

Why would we do it this way if the old way still worked?


We've already burned all the cheap, easy-to-get oil. Now it's harder.
And costlier.


Any questions?
