From Bloomberg:
North American oil drillers are seen boosting daily crude and condensate output by 2 million barrels by the end of the decade, presuming oil prices around $70 to $80, according to research firm Enverus.
Under that scenario, U.S. and Canadian companies would account for roughly 30% of the 7 million barrels of estimated global daily demand growth, Enverus wrote in a report Tuesday.

new estimates, given what “progress” has been made, indicate wer’re on track for ~3deg of warming by century’s end

i don’t think most people really understand the catastrophic implications for all terrestrial (and most aquatic) life on earth should this come to fruition
Have we fallen into a mesmerized state that makes us accept as inevitable that which is inferior or detrimental, as though having lost the will or the vision to demand that which is good?

From Bjorn Lomborg’s False Alarm
“It’s time to admit that the current approach to fixing climate change is not working. More protests and promises, more solar panels and wind turbines, more subsidies—all of these just tinker at the edges. We need to resist the short sighted call from campaigners, green lobbyists, and populist politicians to double down and make even bigger carbon-cutting promises. After thirty years of failure, we need to say enough is enough.”

one thing he absolutely gets right, though, is that we must continue to divest from fossil fuels. but along those same lines, he misses the boat completely on patterns of consumption
