The problem when the barrel of petrol rises, they increase the exploitation of the tar sands and the reserve is as large as that of Arabia, the extraction of these sands is very polluting
almost as polluting as burning the finished product, we go around in circles in our shit (double polution)
Most of this oil, direct pipe line in the USA.

Exactly André; completely agree with you. I have seen several reports on the exploitation of these oil shales: it is total ecological nonsense ...... and this is what we end up when the price of oil goes up !!! not finished: soon they will go to seek oil and gas in the arctic as soon as the sea ice has melted (and there is not for long). Moreover, the Russians have already planted their flag at the bottom of the ocean under the ice floe to "indicate" to other interested countries that they consider themselves the owners. that would prepare us for a little war that I wouldn't be surprised. We will have to wait 10 or 20 years but they will exploit ALL the deposits whatever the cost, because the more oil is expensive, the more PROFITABLE it becomes to exploit these deposits .......... and then there will be Antarctica (see yesterday's ARTE broadcast subject: "mission in Antarctica").

There is something that nobody says ... A barrel is virtually already at $ 150. Indeed, the dollar is abnormally low against the euro, the "normal" parity being roughly $ 1 for 1 Euro while it is $ 1.48 for a euro. Our industries plan to relocate even more because monetary competition becomes unbearable even if we pay a little less for fossil fuel.
Exactly. There will soon not be much industry in France except assembly ... and more. The Germans have found the solution: they have their parts manufactured for their high-end "objects" including Mercos, BMW, VW, Porsche vehicles, etc. at low cost in neighboring Eastern countries (Czechia, Slovakia, Poland, etc.) and then export their beautiful Mercos all over the world, but to the detriment of their own employees: very strict employment policy, decline in their purchasing power, but surplus trade balance (unlike France) ; for the moment the strong euro does not bother them.
I saw a very interesting program (It's in the air on FR5 by JY Calvi at 18 p.m. last week) on the problem of the parities of the currencies Dollar, yen, yiuan, euro. There is a real tacit understanding between the USA and China that ignores the existence of the euro: they do their business on our backs (large Chinese trade surpluses and large US trade deficit: 800 million dollars I believe); The Chinese finance the credits of the Americans, but how far can it hold?
This was very well explained by the economists Bernard Marris and G. Cohen who often disagree and there they were perfectly in tune with their analysis of the situation.
I'm looking for the show in FR5.
