From the article
The board’s first permit was rejected by the Energy Complaints Board in November. The committee determined, among other things, that Ineos’ environmental statement, which the board had approved, lacked a calculation of how large greenhouse gas emissions come from the oil and gas.
The answer, which appears in the new environmental statement, turned out to be 47.5 million tonnes, more than double Denmark’s total emissions in 2030, if it succeeds in meeting the climate target. With that information and a number of other changes, the Danish Energy Agency considers that the conditions for expanding the Danish North Sea adventure have been met.
And
Greenpeace still does not believe that the environmental statement meets the requirements either. Indeed, Ineos has calculated the release of greenhouse gases, but the company does not account for the consequences for climate and the environment.
“The research is very clear that each oil field can be linked to additional deaths as a result of heat waves and other extreme weather. Ineos writes that the effects on people are negligible. But the same can be said about all new oil fields,’ states Christian Fromberg.
Greenpeace plans to complain again.

>Greenpeace har planer om at klage endnu engang
har de planer om at stoppe med at bruge olie?
Pump olien, brug pengene på at elektrificere, vedvarende energi og et par atom reaktorer.
Problemet med fossile brændstoffer er efterspørgslen, ikke udbuddet. Hvis man fjerner udbuddet i Danmark, mister vi skatteindtægter og arbejdspladser, mens vi sender penge til lande der ikke nødvendigvis udvinder olien forsvarligt eller pengene går til diktatorer m.m.
Hvis vi stopper med at bruge fossile brændstoffer, så skal udbuddet nok justere sig ned.
I øjeblikket er uafhængighed af energi udefra højeste prioritet.
Godt stemt 🙂
Godt! Bedre at vi har dansk olie end vi køber fra Mellemøsten eller Norge.
Alt det her miljøpis er ved at være en kæp i hjulet for generel fremdrift.. Der må altså prioriteres engang imellem.
Og ham der kom med forslag om at plastik låg skulle sidde fast på beholderen… Fuck… Dig!
Ikke at ville pumpe olie er legit det dummeste nogensinde. Du vælger bare at importere den. Efterspørgslen falder ikke af at vi danskere vælger ikke at ville pumpe det op
Dejligt!
