(Before It's News)

 

9 years of muck, mud and debate in Java. New evidence suggests a damaging, continuing mud volcano was started by drilling. But many researchers still blame an earthquake.

 

Drilling for Arctic oil is not viable yet, says IEA chief. International energy watchdog’s new head, Fatih Birol, warns of costs and technological challenges but stops short of recommending an outright ban.

 

Pollution alarm sounded as sea cucumbers stranded on Vietnam’s Phu Quoc Island. Thousands of sea cucumbers were washed up on the beach of Phu Quoc Island over the weekend, raising concern among experts that the ecosystem of the famous Vietnamese tourist destination is at risk of severe pollution.

    “Arctic Drilling not Viable”

    Drilling for more oil is not viable, because we already have a glut of it with endless supplies. For which the oil producers would have us believe is a non renewable source to hype up it’s value, when it fact it’s generated via bacteria along tectonic plate boundaries, we even make it in vats these days. It’s not a slow process or made of dinosaurs. The stone age didn’t end because we ran out of stones.
