they pretty much had to because of the judges ruling


We need to invest in legit alternatives. We shouldn't be beholden to fossil fuels and their money

Agreed but we aren't investing in legit alternatives. NG is a legit alternative to gas/oil/diesel in almost every application those 3 are used in yet we are doing the opposite of investing in it.

People drive cars powered on NG down in Peru for literally pennies. About $5 US to fill up. Gas is closer to $6/gallon there.

It's real.

Come on down here, bro, and I'll show you the multi-million dollar sand renourishment programs that all of our beaches have had to adopt to simply maintain the status quo. First one was in 2012 in Nags Head. Now all the beaches are recognizing that this is the only way we'll keep our roads and homes from washing away.

Then STOP destroying the natural barriers by building on the dunes, draining wetlands and cutting the vegetation so people can have a view.

Germany is stopping NS2. Positive indicator they will go along with other more severe sanctions.

I guess Russia may as well shut off NS1 at this point...

NATO is fulfilling it's original promise: Keep the Russians out, the Americans in, and Germany down.

Germany is really helping the Anglo-Americans twist the knife in their chest.

There is beach erosion that occurs every time a large storm passes through. The real problem is that some home builders either build too close to the water, or they do a lousy job of digging down for the footers. Lots of YouTube videos exist showing the differences between bad and good house building on beaches.

We could have almost every vehicle on the road powered by NG and almost every building heated by it, the problem is distribution.

MOOT POINT PEOPLE. We are very close to fission. We won't need fossil fuels for much longer. You are not going to stop a changing earth anyway. A static planets is a dead planet. Fission is the future. We are almost there.

Here's a good National Geographic read. Free if you give them an email address.

Rising Seas: Will the Outer Banks Survive?

Under the combined effects of storms, development, and sea-level rise, portions of this narrow, 200-mile island chain are collapsing, says Stanley Riggs, a coastal geologist at East Carolina University in Greenville.

"We're losing them right now," he says. "In the next ten years, it's going to be awful."

Riggs has been studying the state's coastline since 1967, when he got a job at East Carolina University to start a coastal and marine science program in an unused building on Roanoke Island. In 2010, he was a member of a science panel that produced a controversial report warning that North Carolina could face 39 inches (1 meter) of sea-level rise by 2100, as glaciers melt and ocean waters warm and expand.

"Sea-level rise and storms are taking out eastern North Carolina today—not a hundred years from now. They're doing it today," he says.

The outer banks had their time. It is well past the time for them to die.

Good riddance.

When you say "for much longer", you mean the next 30-40 years?

Oh, and I can tell you this. I will rebel against computerized cars. I don't want to see another computer or virtual ANYTHING for the rest of my days. What a ficking NIGHTMARE computers have been. At this point all my computers are offline, I only use old burners to post here (and this is the ONLY social i still post to), and the BORG HiVE collective is RIGHT AROUND THE CORNER. I don't even trust the vacuums anymore.

probably. I'm telling you, you won't stop it. The earth has done this many times. california is going to collapse into the ocean, and texas is becoming the ocean it used to be (that's why you have oil in the first place). We are headed right for another ice age... enjoy it while it lasts because evolution is faster than you think.

In 175 million years all continents will once again be connected to form Pangea Ultima.
