Hard to find this transcript from Landman, about the need for oil, but it was probably written for Billy Bob’s style of straightforward delivery.
“Do you have any idea how much diesel they have to burn to mix that much concrete or make that steel and haul this (expletive) out here and put it together with a 450-foot crane? You want to guess how much oil it takes to lubricate that (deleted) thing or winterize it? And it’s 20-year lifespan. It won’t offset the carbon footprint of making it.
”And don’t get me started on solar panels and the lithium in your Tesla battery. And never mind the fact that if the whole world decided to go electric tomorrow, we don’t have the transmission lines to get the electricity to the cities.”
“Oil is in everything, including roads, tires, tennis rackets, refrigerators, lipstick, antihistamines, cell phone cases, heart valves, clothing that isn’t made from animals or plant fibers, soap, hand lotion, garbage bags, fishing boats, and “pretty much anything plastic.”
“Getting oil out of the ground is the most dangerous job in the world.”
“If oil companies thought that wind turbines were the future, they would be building them everywhere.”
