As the world grapples with the existential crisis of climate change, environmental activists want President Joe Biden to phase out the oil industry, and Republicans argue he’s already doing that. Meanwhile, the surprising reality is the United States is pumping oil at a blistering pace and is on track to produce more oil than any country has in history.

The United States is set to produce a global record of 13.3 million barrels per day of crude and condensate during the fourth quarter of this year, according to a report published Tuesday by S&P Global Commodity Insights.

Last month, weekly US oil production hit 13.2 million barrels per day, according to the US Energy Information Administration. That’s just above the Donald Trump-era record of 13.1 million set in early 2020 just before the Covid-19 crisis sent output and prices crashing.

That’s been helping to keep a lid on crude and gasoline prices.

Looks like stocking up for wartime...

Which is not occurring.

Doing something and doing something competently are two separate things.

I think you should have a good long think with yourself about the very personal meaning this statement should have for you

Numbers back up my position, they don't however support yours.

Good luck with the overly confident idiocy bud.

Idiots love praise and shiny things and I don't trust you with objects smaller then your fist.

Uh huh and when this conversation is 30+ comments long including you saying crazy bigoted shit you'll say the same lie to yourself and it will be just as idiotic as every time before it.

[–] SCB@lemmy.world -1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

It never will be that though.

What? Supported by general logic and a basic understanding of the English language?
