Technology like solar energy, wind power, fuel cells, zaps electric vehicles, EV hybrids, etc have come so far recently. Green energy even costs way less than oil and gas in many cases.

The only CCS that makes sense is leaving unused coal underground. Unfortunately, the tar sands of B.C. are coal-like in their energy costs of extraction and refining. Not a great way to get more oil from an environmental standpoint.

And I think it is spelled British Columbia.
