350.org, the efforts to secure new reserves may be useful for production of materials, (just about everything is based on petroleum products) but we can only burn about twenty-percent of the current reserves.

There is a line and it looks like a fatal one that we have crossed. We are past that line and it seems we will push the planet to, and past, the two-degree increase mark and it could have catastrophic results concerning life on the planet. We need to reduce, not increase the CO2 ppm content of the atmosphere as many of you already know.

It does look like we are at a point where any efforts made should be towards significant changes for the sake of survival; that means we move quickly away from burning fossil fuels rather than exploring more exotic and remote means of extracting it.

The Koch Bros. have been working hard, and spending millions, to take us along on their thanatos train and what looks like demise-for-profit. This is a far more critical situation than it seems and more oil for burning as fuel is a bad, bad joke on all of us.
