The last time CO2 levels got to to 270-280ppm was 2.5 million years ago...which spawned a series of ice ages.
interesting info about carbon capture tech

You bet. And the elevation of JFK is 11.9 ft.
But not nearly as quickly.
Trivia: The setting date for the movie Soylent Green was 2022.
Not sure who’s blocking what, but the pipelines are being built as we speak and the corps are using the eminent domain to take over the land they need for the construction.
It’s likely just theatrics until everything is ready.
Sure but as you know oil is priced globally so the less oil you use the less of an effect price fluctuations have on your daily life. IOW no reasons to go to war in the ME just so one can have the luxury of filling up their Raptor at $3/gal.
Its really much simpler than that.
The US produces enough for our own use. As mentioned above, we have a problem getting it to the west Coast, and they couldn't refine it (currently) if we did - but in BTU terms, we make enough.
From 1974 until 2014 US producers were not allowed to export. Period. That law was relaxed, but the law is written such that the President can freeze that law at will.
So if a shooting war happens in the middle east, and global prices go to $200 a barrel - the US president simply says "no exports". Then the price is based on supply and demand here.
People on this board are working off 1970's middle east fearmongering. Look at my chart in post 18. We have a oil surplus globally.
Now the big problem were going to have is the end of the decade. Either we will be short oil - because we are not investing in infrastructure for it. Or we will be short electricity, because we will be short Nat. gas - unless someone starts building reactors really quick like.
Price controls don't work. You know that.
year 1750 to mid 1800s had about 288ppm levels. Very bad times, many starved to death in Scandinavia.
Well at least one pipe line from Colorado to Texas was blocked.
What are you talking about. They always work. They make the price controlled item unavailable at any price.

There's no man made way to remove CO2 from the atmosphe that makes sense.
I'm saying capture it at the source and do something useful with it like shoot it down a old oil well to get more oil out of it.
LOL. Indeed, if the goal is to cause shortages then have at it.
(my thoughts)
The more CO2 the cheaper food as food production is more efficient with higher CO2, if we reduce CO2 it will could strain the food supply since crops now grow in a higher CO2 atmosphere. I suspect plant technology can maybe over come that. The more CO2 in the air, the better food crops and all plants will grow.

Isn’t the reason we import because we don’t have the refineries that are needed to refine the USA crude, as it is different then Saudi crude that is more needed for oils etc….? Just like different kinds of metals are used for different applications, so are different crude oils makeup.
