BP head angling for rights to drill in ANWAR, and making a hash of refuting peak oil. This journalist also has no real idea how it is production that matters, not 'running out'.

"The world is not running out of oil and can continue to produce hydrocarbons for the next 40 years provided restrictions are lifted on where companies can operate, the head of BP said today."

Amazing - we will still pump oil in 40 years. Wow.

Yes its annoying isn't it? Pointless statements, designed to mislead the general public and encorage false hope.

It's a shame it doesn't have a comments section where we could put the dumb journalist on the right track.
