This article hits home a very important point, having lived in Norway for some years, the country has relied on oil since 1968, taxed it’s population very heavily 54.8%, car fuel is USD $2.50+

Even though the oil is exported, most of it’s 2 million barrels per day, other countries use the Norwegian oil which produces 859,607,463 tons of Co2 per day! That’s a large amount of Co2 per year, 313.7 BILLION tons of Co2, just from oil.

I’m in SoCal and we are right now getting solar panels installed in our mobile home park. It is fascinating to watch them go about it. This is day 3 and so far we have a lot of vertical pylons I will call them…. which I assume will have the panels installed on top…….because they look like that one you have in the photo. but they have put at least 30-40 of the vertical structures up .
