Chris V: Yes we could. From what I see we have two options for stopping the oil drilling:

1. Supposedly the CO2 needed to produce Norwegian oil is generally cleaner than what is made by the rest of the world. That is the argument the oil companies make.

2. We could stop making oil. Some say this would lead to more pollution because someone more ‘dirty’ would take over. Others would say this creates a demand for oil that would help the development of alternative/renewable energy.

3. We should make the production of oil electrified to make it more efficient given we would not export that energy to fossil-based countries. (Norway has 95% or more hydropower)

I could whine a lot about how much mr. Jens Stoltenberg gives a lot of talk to the environment, but is still an oil president and did not put up at single wind mill in his last four years period.

1) Data gathered at public meeting in Llandeilo, uk, July ’05 the things take hundreds – yes 100’s – of years to recoup the energy required to build them

2) Results from a very sensible design of Turbine-Alternator Device – TAD ? – suggest that 5% of cost p.a. is readily available. The 20 years of solo effort that went into this, reveals Two simple reasons for the disparity in Sustainability figure.

Sadly, Councils and Governments have – so far – had “ears of cloth” to the data available. They take about as much interest, as they might of yet another “perpetual motion” device – probably less !

P.S.;) Beautiful pictures…Norway is amazing.
