“The world needs energy from many sources, including oil and natural gas…. The Gulf of Mexico currently represents over 15 percent of U.S. oil and natural gas production that is also some of the lowest-carbon intensive production in the world with a small environmental footprint.”
“For new offshore lease sales to be held, a new 5-year Offshore Leasing Program must be finalized to replace the current program which is scheduled to expire on June 30, 2022….”

Read for yourself about this incredible benefit that the world is experiencing as the air’s CO2 content continues its upward rise. It will give you a whole new perspective on the many benefits of atmospheric CO2 enrichment.”
Over the past few decades an increasing number of studies have investigated whether or not rising atmospheric CO2 will alter the amounts and concentrations of various health-promoting substances found in medicinal or “health food” plants.
For example, the research team of AbdElgawad et al. (2021) recently examined “the nutritive values, phytochemicals (i.e., pigments, phenolics, flavonoids, vitamins, mineral profiles and essential oil yields) and antioxidant activities of both caraway sprouts and mature plants.”…
