britishcolumbian: If you care too go to Google; "No oil tankers" it gives you a chance to vote and show your support
Its all very well stopping the flow of oil in the short term but it will be needed sooner or later . I watch the green movement here attacking any prospecting , not because its going to be destructive but because its prospecting . Its almost genocidal in nature to stop the production . If there ever comes a time when there is a failure to plant crops on a large scale mega city's will starve .

Well, we would like to preserve our natural resources, and keep our province health safe from pollutants which cause illnesses and thanks to our new Party which supports our environment....:)

Solar energy is free yet the equipment to catch the sun rays is still expensive. Wind to generate energy is free and just today I was talking to someone who knows about this matter and said that a 30 m tall "fan" would supply more energy than an average household would need to run...interesting.
As for the oil -oh well- economic interests are placed there so, no matter "acts" (not even in Canada) there will always be a flow of oil in one way or another.
Where I live is windy and I would like to have an indoor home with a pool (circulating -recycling- the water of course) and the water warm that will be my next Santa's letter

Hi Life , next time you go walk about let a few more peeps aye , Sola is cheap now , went from 15-10 dollars a watt to 1.50 that's the holy grail . Its not as simple as hooking up a few panels and producing power . You need to store it , nasty batteries , there's 240 kg's of failed batteries outside . Wind is the same needing storage . Its alright in a small setup rather than a country setup . One of the Australian states fiddled with their grid adding fancy bits and theres now major problems after power cuts . and when my fridge or freezer turns on it cuts my router off leaving me to log in again . As for the oil when my dozers are running I need 115 litters an hour , stop them and all the tractors and trucks and 8 billion people will be eating each other . We live by the strength of a very thin thread .
