ExxonMobil’s 2012 Outlook for Energy
IRVING, Texas, Dec 08, 2011 – Less-carbon-intensive fuels, particularly natural gas, gain market share, while coal peaks and begins a decline for the first time in modern history. –Gas from shale and other unconventional rock formations will account for 30 percent of global gas production by 2040. –Demand growth would be more than four times the projected 30 percent without expected gains in efficiency.

Obama diverts North American oil to China – kills jobs
Could it be that Warren Buffett asked him not to? Buffett bought Burlington Northern railroad which owns 1,000 miles of track in North Dakota.
