It's the big piece of news here today, everyone seem to hate it. Except me, who actually have a basic understanding of gas pipes.

At the same time, the government has overruled our EPA and banned a company from drilling for oil in the Swedish part of the Baltic. For "environmental" reasons. Meanwhile they approve a 1200 km long dual undersea pipeline, in spite of enviro-whining.

My country is ruled by idiots.

Peak oil is not an energy crisis. It is a liquid fuel crisis.

Re: Europe (none / 0)

I did. There's no chance in Hell the opposition would be pro-drilling though.
