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?

Tell Weather Reporters to Report Global Warming

Dear Friend:

Did you know that over 60% of meteorologists don’t believe in human-induced climate change?

It’s a big problem: weather reporters reach millions of people every night, and right now they’re not telling their viewers the full story about climate change. It's time for that to change.

Meteorologists are meeting this month at the annual conference of the American Meteorological Society, where the AMS Council will vote on a new official statement on climate change. Denier meteorologists don’t want the statement to pass, and are doing everything they can to derail the process. We can’t let that happen.

That’s why I joined the Forecast the Facts campaign, which is calling on the AMS to pass the statement immediately, and then promote it to AMS members so they start telling their viewers the full story on climate change. Will you join me?

Click below and tell the AMS: resist the deniers and pass the new statement immediately!
