There has been a lot of dumping green energy stock and buying up more traditional energy in the markets since Trump made his announcement. Maybe you're right. :ask:

I beluieve Trump did the right thing we must allso keep the coal miners in business I can run my Lawnmower on coal if push comes to shove.They ran trains and ships on coal and called it life in the early 1900s.I can also run my house on coal. Just open the windows for Air conditioning!And breath that fresh pollution!

Are you going to run the mower on syngas from coal?

C+ limited O2--> CO

You can react it

CO + H2O--> CO2+H2

Then you have to separate those and compress the H2 to store it.

I should have titled this oil in the Trump era. Oil is too short to search.

Tar sands has a few decades, but is costly for getting a bit of crap fuel with a lot of steam.
Short term oil summary:

Auto gas prices go up by 2022. Tar sands has no effect on that.

Which is a very good reason for burning as little as possible of it, so it can be saved to make useful petrochemicals...

Trump energy! It's a gas! It's oil! It's coal! It's too fast:
One example where oil and gas lobbyists and industry sources said the administration may be expending too much effort is its quest to dismantle an Obama-era Interior Department rule tightening methane emission standards for oil and gas wells and pipelines on public lands.
