Btw, to drive a million miles from only 750 bbls will require some pretty sophisticated cracking processing, including, fractionation, thermal-cracking, hydro-desulfurization, de-nitrification, hydro-cracking, platforming, reforming, and the manufacture of copious amounts of hydrogen - Why??
Because unfortunately Mother Nature cursed humanity by only providing about 10% of naturally occurring gasoline (approx) in a barrel of oil, the remainder synthesized by complex processing…Quite amazingly, this all somehow happens at about the same cost as a gallon of Milk!!…All a part and parcel of the manufacture of plastics, fertilizers, solar panels, windmills, vehicles and pharmaceuticals (cry’s of NIMBY often raises it’s irrational claims)…Trust that hamburger doesn’t start out at the Supermarket…

And you should include the costs fix the 100,000 abandoned oil wells in Alberta. The average cost to do so is $1,000,000.00 each. Of course the owners of those wells filed for bankruptcy, leaving the taxpayer to mitigate the damage.
When is an oil spill a spill? Only if there are 750 barrels. Enough to drive my RV for about a million miles.
If we don't extract it, it WILL eventually work it's way to the surface, naturally..
Ever hear of "tar pits"?
Those are naturally formed pools of the alleged harmful hydro carbon..
Here is one of the most famous ones..

Perhaps every mile of asphalt of every road needs to be removed down to dirt and put into EPA approved hazardous dumps which are lined with liners made of the same hyrdo carbon molecules as we are driving on a solid cesspool of bad for the earth hydro carbon?

I fixed the long link and the quotes. Please try to shorten those links, because they break the dimensions of the page.
That aside, there's no good way to separate the politics from this topic, so it's time to close it.
