What part of it is dying? The demand for natural gas, keeps going up. We literally had two countries come to us when Russia shut down their gas lines, asking us to supply them and our (not so smart) PM at the time not only said no, but that there was ‘no business case’ for shipping more gas. Im pretty sure when there’s a customer knocking on your shop door asking when you’re gonna open up that there’s a business case.
You are right, but their is no future for it. Combustibles need to be eliminated from our energy markets. They are harming us and the entire planet we need to live. Huge expense for small time gains is bad leadership. If the markets were nationalized, I would be more excited to get more to market, even with what I said. It is not. We don’t need to help foreign entities take our resources faster for a pittance in tax benefits. Fuck that noise.
If a cold country is asking for our gas, especially to eliminate dependence on a hostile foreign regime, that is definitely a worldwide improvement and harm reduction for millions of people. Its wishful thinking to say ‘eliminate it’ but thats not going to happen overnight, if ever, in some countries. If we have the resource NOW and they need it NOW, then its in their best interest AND ours to sell it to them now.
As Marx said, “A capitalist will sell you the rope to hang him with.” You’re argument is only valid if you believe anthropogenic global warming isn’t real. If it is, and all the science indicates it is, then the business case is only valid in the short term, with massive penalties in 15 to 40 years.
Businesses make decisions based on the next quarter. Countries tend to have to look at the next decade.
Well, to be honest I think anthropogenic global warming is only half real. I used to live on Hawaii island and during the massive lava flow of 2018 it inundated my side of the island and I watched literally BILLIONS of gallons of lava, ash and volcanic gasses spew out of multiple vents for 3.5 months. That volcano has been continuously erupting for nearly 35 years and it recently has been spewing massive volumes again.
Kilauea volcano is part of the Ring of Fire - about 40,000 km long and up to about 500 km wide, and contains about 750 volcanoes. I have a very hard time believing that my little put put car is what’s causing most of global warming when I have witnessed the incredible volume of gas coming out of the earth.
