The United States gets 20% of our oil from Canada. That 20% comes mostly from 3 major oil sand deposits in northern Alberta. In fact 66% of all the oil produced in Canada is exported to the US. However Canada gets 55% of the oil it consumes from The middle east.
90% of The oil products consumed in the US is refined here on the gulf coast. Although we get only 40% of our crude from domestic sites. The other 60% comes from other countries.
I have no faith in human perfectability. I think that human exertion will have no appreciable effect upon humanity. Man is now only more active - not more happy - nor more wise, than he was 6000 years ago.
