Marina Schwarz + 1,576 December 20, 2017 France has passed a law banning oil and gas exploration. Wow. The country produces just 1% of what it consumes in oil. But they're very proud of it. Is it me or is it really ridiculous? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pavel + 384 PP December 20, 2017 The French are a very proud nation, what else to say. Although with this decision there will be a lot of changes in this country regarding oil production. 1% is 1%. Big deal. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Adam Varga + 123 AV December 20, 2017 At this point almost everything is spinning around climate change. And it is important to say "I was the first" even though it was just 1%. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rodent + 1,424 December 20, 2017 I'm tiring already of the endless headlines that praise France for its bold move. How's the view from the cheap seats, France? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They'll just import more. On a global scale, no difference. Oh, wait, people do tend to ignore stuff like that... I fear you may be right. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
