So is the fix more, or less regulation ?

I think we should get it out of our minds that there is a "fix" for a "fixed" market.....

 

[Shannow]

Agreed wholeheartedly.

So how do we fix it ?

wipe the slate clean and start again ?

Grandfather the current perps out of it ?

 

[Pablo]

Cut down on demand for the product is the only way I see it. That's why it's such a tough nut......but it can be started.

Nuclear power.
Natural Gas.
Clean coal.
Conservation.
Equal support for alternative energy (geothermal/solar/wind/ocean/etc) which works, quick dumping of "fuels" such as corn ethanol, some biodiesel feedstocks that don't work.

I sound like a broken record all over again.

Pablo,

I'd change the order of your list a tad.

And eliminate "Clean Coal" as trying to "polish a turd"

But I agree in the large part.

I'll buy the cake.

 

[Pablo]

Change it as you wish. Only in order of importance to start now for the 5-10 year plan. Need to start the nuke building yesterday.

I left off for (USA centric) reasons: remove artificial barriers within the USA for extracting oil within our own borders.

Actually coal will be doable IMHO. But yes it still produces C02.

 

[Shannow]

I'm interested in the artificial barriers thing, as there's 4 or 5 Oz companies that are drilling/planning drilling, and have tenements in the US that I've been interested in throwing some cash into...they look OK, but I wouldn't be interested in throwing my money into the dumpster should the tenements be closed down, drilling be stopped, or be resumed...sticking to CSM downunder at present

I doubt there will be anymore restrictions given the price of gas.
