There are more places to walk than there are places to drill for oil. Move on.
Negative, I think it's something to do with mavity.But MONEY makes the world go around.
obviously clueless
and think of the lives that have been saved. If we simply stopped drilling for oil the world would be anarchy.
Nope, the earth spins because there is no mavity to stop it.

I think you're the one who's clueless. or simply didn't understand what I meant.
There are only a select few places in the UK where it is worth drilling for oil. However, there are thousands of miles of foot paths and bridleways you can walk on.
I don't think giving up this small area to oil exploration is going to drastically reduce the amount of available area we can undertake "leisure" pursuits such as walking or cycling.
Just NIMBY'ish imo.
Yes, keep "moving on" until there's nothing left. The "move on" mentality means accept anything that's thrown at us, stand up for nothing.
I can feel your sneer from here.

And it's most likely rubbish too, the most likely plan would be to stick in a pipeline, unless it was that small, and then it probably wouldn't be economically viable, especially with the $pB rate as it is now.
(According to a reliable source the price of oil atm is making most of the north sea extraction a loss.)
I feel for you, about the destruction of a nice habitat but I also think go ahead, as next year I will probably be working in the oil industry. Which is a bit of a problem in a way as I don't like what they do some of the time, but I also like the experience, jobs and pay...
By strange coincidence I've watched this film this afternoon:

It makes grubbing up a little bit of Surrey seem even more futile.

Seems about right, its usually the way with NIMBY's. You either fight the cause or get nothing but grief and hassle untill you do. Why post this on here and then get all tetchy because other people have a different view? Local NIMBY's here are on the war path because a company want to put up a survey mast/turbine. Honestly is it that much of an issue?
