    Those oil spills and releases he has been dealing with must have been pretty bad. The nearest spill to Chuck's hometown of Pelly(according to his CWB rants online, he is from Pelly) is an hour away near Buchanan in 2003. And to think that Chuck has been dealing with that 365 days a year ever since is quite astounding.

    Perhaps oil and gas wells look different in Pelly, but a look a google maps satellite imagery doesn't show any oil leases, pad, roads, or facilities of any kind anywhere near Pelly. But I won't attempt to draw any conclusions based on that.

        Any of Chuck's neighbors on here able to confirm his troubles with oil and gas wells and pipelines? Or even the presence of oil industry in his area?

            Considering the countries where most rare earth and Lithium mines are currently operating, surely Chuck can find a map showing the environmental impact of these resources, equally vital to modern society as is oil/gas. China is well known for publicising their environmental catastrophes, and citizens are strongly encouraged to speak out about issues, as we all know.

              No one has come to your defense Chuck, I guess we will. Just have to take your word for it.

                I see your point. The only thing worth mentioning is that oil and gas have already reached their peak in terms of performance, while the other industries are still developing and might reach certain sustainability parameters that oil cannot reach. It's an assumption, of course.

                    Intercept: "Report to HQ"

                    "D. I. has violated his orders to remain under cover for a specified time after November.

                    He has now compromised Vika, whose successful completion of her operation depended on silence from any corespondents involved in her assignment OP HIL-TON-SERV.

                    Yevgeny has now been forced to take steps to have her relocated to a safe house.

                    Contacted immediately Alexhander. He is very unimpressed."

                      Along with all the numerous spills in the oil patch some large some very small comes the reality that taxpayers are going to bail out the industry when it comes to orphan wells by paying for their cleanup. Federal money is headed their way right now.

                      There are billions of dollars of liability on the books for all the other suspended and abandoned wells that are hanging like a stinking albatross around the necks of many oil companies.

                      Cleaning up is just more red tape! Shirking their responsibility and passing the bill onto taxpayers is the plan.

                      And mining has its own legacy of environmental damage and shirking responsibility. Its the take the money and run philosophy.
