Would Offshore Drilling Bring Gas Prices Down?

Posted by Catherine Morgan on June 19, 2008

Would Offshore Drilling Bring Gas Prices Down? — by Catherine Morgan

This will be part one in a series of posts I will be doing on gas prices and offshore drilling. I want to take a look at the facts, and attempt to separate the truth from the fiction. Would offshore drilling lower gas prices? Why do the oil companies need more places to drill, if they aren’t even using all of what they have now? How would more offshore drilling effect the environment? Does this have more to do with politics than the people? These are just a few of the many question we will try to answer here.

Let’s start with an article in today’s New York Times. Here are a few excepts from that article, I really recommend you read the full piece.

Are Oil Companies Going Green? (see video)

Oil Companies - How Green Are They? — Posted by Catherine Morgan (cross-posted at The Care2 Election Blog)

Are the oil companies going green? If by “green†we are talking about cold hard cash…The oil companies are very, very green. In fact, their cups runneth over with greenness. However, in this case, the oil companies (a.k.a. Big Oil) are spending a lot of money on commercials designed to convince you and me that they are investing in our environmental future. So, how green are they?

So what do you think? Are the oil companies really going green? Or, are they just playing green on tv?

Personally, I think they should be required to spend a certain percentage of their profits on green alternatives to oil…at the very least.

Does John McCain really care about the environment? Or, is it more McCain double-talk, masquerading as McCain straight-talk?
