    Default World Energy Reserves

    visit-red-300x50PNG
    New report on

    international energy reserves from the Congressional Research Service.

    Link to the actual

    Report

    As shown in the charts below, the U.S. has 1,321 billion barrels of oil when combining its

    recoverable natural gas, oil and coal reserves. The CRS reported barrels of oil equivalent for other sources of

    energy, ie gas and coal.

    While Russia is a close second with 1,248 billion barrels, other energy producing

    nations are far behind. No. 3 is Saudi Arabia (543 billion barrels), followed by China (494 billion barrels), Iran

    (426 billion barrels) and Canada (221 billion barrels).

    Any guesses as to why we're not energy independent, and

    not providing tens of thousands of jobs and lowering energy costs in this

    country?

    I sometimes think the powers-that-be

    behind the throne are secretly downplaying our (US) reserves, with the intent of getting other counties to deplete

    their own supplies, so eventually, we will have oil, and those other guys won't, and we can start dictating terms

    to them...

    I prefer to think that the Mad

    Hatter is in control and Alice remains suspicious of the
    Cheshire Cat's surrepticious grin.
