"The report, (from the Alberta Environment), said there were more than 45,000 uncertified abandoned wells at the end of 2008, compared to less than 25,000 uncertified wells in 2001." Calgery Herold, July 26, 2009.
Drilling more than before, making a bigger environmental mess, still not taking responsibility and we get stuck with the dilemma. The "drillers" and their money can't be bothered. They are off to wreck someone else's backyard. Do you think the CEO of XYZ oil company has a rig set up in his backyard.
Actually the joke is on all of us now, except some of us just realize it. I guess some thought they could go back to their ranches in Texas or wherever and clear some brush, hike around and say they were concerned about the environment.
But now it's inescapable, the destruction is everywhere. Actually it always has been everywhere it was just easier to ignore. Sure there is some progress and more people are concerned but please don't fool yourself. Big brother is watching out for his self. Big brother will just keep moving further away and will change the channel or gas will stay under $3 a gallon. Please don't wait until you can only find a polar bear in the zoo.
