What if petroleum belongs in the Earth and we should leave it there?

absolutly been saying the exact same thing!! so true so true

@houseofisraelmusic

DEEP drilling certainly has an effect.

All the "debunkers" talk about the shallow

drilling into shale.

What about the "Fractional" stuff they're doing?

Setting off explosives under the ground on volunteers' property?

People are getting sick.

Accounts have been suspended when they talked about it.

This idea makes sense.

@macpduff

For the wells at 10,000 feet, maybe, but I've since been corrected;

most petroleum is in soft sedimentary deposits, not near

tectonic activity.

That's not to say that petroleum might serve an as

yet unknown but vital purpose in our Earth's crust.

@tomken8dy I believe that petroleum does serve a purpose. Especially now that we've learned about the deep sources where it appears that the earth is manufacturing it. There's a theory that when oil is removed, water enters the cavities causing earthquakes. At the depth of the Gulf BP well, the earh's temps are high enough to cause steam. Also, Our Public TV program recently said that steam in the earth is the driver behind volcanos. We simply are ignorant.

Humans have reached the level of technological ability

to meddle sufficiently with the Earth to annihilate themselves.

@lonewebcrusadaa . ,if it belongs there ? Yes . You answered your own 'Question' .

[hackajim]

and we got skimmers!!!!!! we need this stuff (oil) for our comforts and food.....every gallon of milk that you drink, is made of plastic from OIL..... EVERY ziplock baggy or contact lens..... the packaging needs of our community outweigh the environmental costs...... and our giant brains will someday get us off this rock,.......so we are not slave to mother earth... she is just that, a mother that will die and the children will leave, like an egg an a sperm cell.... part of a natural process.

[hackajim]

what if there is a direct correlation between your contacts and petroleum..... what if your zip lock bags were petroleum.... WHAT IF there were no innovative amazing humans bettering our lives on this rock.......ideas that feed people....why hate on Galileo and newton.... Einstein and Gutenberg..... without his printing press the bible would not have had such good coverage around the world....... so these great thinkers who dream dreams, need tools , one of these tools is petroleum ,...sht hapns
