Kepler 22b
Let’s send the conservatives.
no way, too hospitable
Send them to Venus. Give them a preview of what Earth will be like after all the Athabaska tarsands oil has been exploited.
A vastly better place than it is now. It’s going to take two hundred years to run the reserve we know of today down to zero and by some accounts there’s another two to six(!!) trillion bbls to be had after that’s done. Fossil fuels have been, are and will continue to be the energy that powers the much of what we do. Thank god for that. (BTW had colonel drake not discovered oil whales would have been extinct by the 1910s)
Earth First!…..we can strip mine the other planets later!…..
I do agree with your last sentence, however Mr. Tulk…..
OK Gord, time to get on the rocket. I’m sure they have petrochemicals on Kepler as well
Besides, something tells me that if photovoltaic cells had been discovered/invented in the time of Col. Drake, we’d have not only copious amounts of whales, but a pleasant lack of acid rain, smog days, and dead zones in the Gulf of Mexico and Bering Sea
90+% percent of the oilsands oil will not be strip-mined but extracted in situ using new tech that builds on Sagd and THai other technology that is already commercialized. It is even likely that it will be upgraded and even refined in situ.
And photo votaics are quaint non-options unless you drive their cost down an order of magnitude and find a non-metallic way of storing the enters for non or low daylight hours. We aren’t there yet and might not be for another hundred years – 200 past the leviathan’s date with extinction sans fossil fuels.
Meanwhile I look forward to my personal vehicle after the next one being a 450hp/450ftlb sedan fueled by natural gas at 35 cents a liter taxes in. A couple of oilfield clients are already moving their heavy and light trucks to NG as I type this – in doing so they are writing the standards for the technology for all of north America – (right here in alberta – exciting stuff).
Welcome to the Thunderdome.
@Mr. Tulk…..Sorry, Mr. Tulk…..despite new technology and methods…..greenhouse gases from the tar sands continue to go up, not down, and no amount of you and your stinkin party’s greenwashing will change that…..

The impact of AGW on global temperatures is insignificant. The ipcc – as vested an interest as you will ever see – even has backed doWn on its estimates. Time for those clinging to AGW religion to move on.
The always controversial Mr. Tulk wrote:
“Unpolished shoes are a disgrace to God and man. This is a truth I learnt from my dear Father. Perhaps this is why I find the polishing of shoes to be positively therapeutic. Requiring concentration and a modest expenditure of energy, but no thought, it enables the mind to rest and find comfort. And the result is truly satisfying. Scuffed, badly-maintained shoes denote laziness and unreliability in the wearer.”
Thin ice, Mr. Tulk. Thin ice.
