oil and almonds
Thought
experiment,
Which
would you buy or walk away from?
first
take a look at this video about using fracking waste water to
irrigate almonds in california.
almonds
and oil
People
can choose which country to buy their food from. There will be a
consumer backlash to all the pollution and regulatory corruption.
organic
almonds from california *
Red
wine from California *
Walnuts
from California *
almonds,
fruit from California *etc etc
Milk
from sick and dying cattle near fracking sites in Pennsylvania,
then
extend that to any milk from Pennsylvania that "might" be
contaminated.
Then
extend that to American milk that might be contaminated ( who knows?
No one is checking, just looking the other way) as well as intensive
use of bovine growth hormone, antibiotics and goodness knows what
else.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bovine_somatotropin
Now
moving on to the UK
How about Birdseye peas grown in fields around fracking sites *
Or
how about beer made anywhere near frack sites, which would you
choose ? One made near frack sites or one made no where near frack
sites.
This
extends any food or drinks
that
might have been irrigated / contaminated by local fracking operations
fracking waste water / treated or maybe untreated / dumped.
I
see a massive consumer backlash.
People
who want to reduce risk of cancer are going to have to switch to
organic and vegetarian just out of self preservation.
It
still sneaks in with junk food, crisps, fizzy drinks (Gmo / roundup
corn syrup is in so many things)
Again
there is going to be a massive consumer backlash as people look at
the coke bottle and "corn syrup" 40 percent sugar or look
up aspartame health impacts and switch to something a bit less toxic.
People
are going to cut down on milk IMHO, especially skimmed milk and
chocolate that thinks adding titanium white (key component of white
paint) is a cool thing to do.
Once
people realise the Alice in wonderland world we are living in that
thinks adding paint and growth hormones to milk is acceptable. There
is going to be a momentous consumer backlash.

fracking the dirty truth
randy moyer interview
another epa hearing
here is a specific
process of the frack, explosive water pressure to shatter rock and release gas.
The last time they did it cuadrilla had to shut down due to causing earthquakes
near blackpool 5 years ago they had an accident that they tried to cover up.
The biggest problems are connected to the whole logistics involved in fracking.
Its a bit like placing an industrial factory (eg compressor station) in the
middle of a residential area creating some heavy duty chemical. The actual
technical process of creating the chemical may be relatively safe in a
controlled environment (although still risky) but if it is run by people who
crash trucks dumping toxic waste everywhere and dump waste into the local
resevoir. This will have impacts. Also imagine this factory in residential area
periodically releasing gas into the air or flaring huge flares during the night
due to high pressures. Or maybe where they store the gas gets fractured and
releases it everywhere like in california
methane gas leak in LA
methane gas leak in LA
porter ranch 15 miles north of LA
radiation in CSG
Then there is dealing
with the NORM radioactive wastewater / mud. This was dumped in the manchester
canal untreated for radiation. There are risks to air quality, noise nuisance,
property prices, earth quakes (particularly with wastewater injection wells),
water pollution through direct contamination, water pollution through indirect
contamination. Spraying waste water on roads, leaving it in evaporation ponds,
spraying it on agriculture farmland.

Oil subsidies in the uk
Ok, I was having a fun argument with a friend the other day...
One topic was oil subsidies in the UK.
"No such thing in the UK they don't exist... Oil production and distribution is taxed at about 80 to 90 percent. No such thing as oil subsidies in the UK. It's left wing rubbish"
Is a tax rebate a subsidy?
Is tax payer paying for clean decommissioning a subsidy?
Is 5 million tax payer money on fracking PR a subsidy?
Is government funding pro academia and focus groups a subsidy?
In other parts of the world there may be real subsidised oil prices but what about the UK specifically.
Anyone got anything constructive to add / say to bolster the argument that oil / gas / coal in the UK gets subsidies?
I went home and did a bit of research.
http://www.odi.org/sites/odi.org.uk/files/odi-assets/publications-opinion-files/9957.pdf
See pg 69 / 70 for UK summary
Tax breaks for north sea oil
Decommissioning costs
5 million to promote fracking.
http://www.odi.org/publications/10058-production-subsidies-oil-gas-coal-fossil-fuels-g20-broken-promises
Maybe I should have used the words tax breaks and government funded exploration and research directly benefiting oil companies production.
World wide subsidies vs UK specific subsidies.
http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/uk-government-pays-6bn-a-year-in-subsidies-to-fossil-fuel-industry-a6730946.html
"The Government claims it does not give any subsidies to the fossil-fuel industry. This is because it has a different, stricter definition of subsidy – which it limits to “government action that lowers the pre-tax price to consumers to below international-market levels”.
"...This is despite David Cameron telling a UN climate-change conference in September 2014: “We need to give business the certainty it needs to invest in low carbon. That means fighting against the economically and environmentally perverse fossil‑fuel subsidies.” "

http://lmgtfy.com/?q=is+oil+production+subsidised
As for free markets they might be a nice idea if I ever saw one, although most seem to end up as monopolies.
