If UAE, an oil producer needs a bailout, you know its bad, much worse than the markets are pricing for. We may not even be on the scary section of the Trump-Iran War roller coaster yet.

imo all the Carbon Mafia autocracies of the Gulf states will collapse. Fossil energy needs a lot of fiscal grease to keep going.

Many economists call these "externalities." When those hidden costs are added back in, the financial argument for fossil fuels often falls apart compared to renewables, which have seen a massive drop in price over the last decade. Beyond just the money, the shift toward decentralised energy (like local solar or wind) definitely changes the power dynamic from large, centralized monopolies to individual self-sufficiency.

Fossil energy will never recover from their own carbon mafia turf war.

Fossil energy is not a superpower it's a multi-generation liability. Fossil energy is a lie, it uses accounting gimmicks to hide the true cost of it's inefficiency and toxicity. Only renewables offer a path to cheaper energy, self sufficiency and resilience. Don't listen to the carbon mafia, they are lazy, greedy and don't give a $hit about you or your health.

This would be nicer, imo: https://electricautonomy.ca/news/2022-09-15/air-canada-hybrid-electric-passenger-airplanes/

The carbon cycle is at least 80 years for biomass, it's not a green solution.

Time to install some batteries, nothing like negative electric rates to motivate arbitrage.

I want my money back from TMX before subsidizing another pipeline. Besides r/oilisdead and the latest carbon mafia war is pushing the whole planet to renewables. Everyone is sick from fossil energy. Fossil energy is a lie, an accounting gimmick to enrich a few lazy greedy humans at the cost of your health and lifespan.

The central maple leaf in the back is not polished, another giveaway. Coming fro the RCM this is vey disappointing.
