So Columbo, 7bananas and others. If the institutional smart money is divesting from fossil fuels, what is it that drives you? What is it, that you feel will so benefit The Bahamas that you would continue your ridiculous arguments in favor of drilling for oil in one of the most threatened island nations in the world? Are you commenting on this forum because you feel it will truly benefit The Bahamas? Or, are you in it for yourselves, for the money to go into your pocket? It doesn't take a Sherlock Holmes to figure out the answer to that question.

The divestment movement is gaining serious momentum, in tandem with the rise of ESG (environmental, social and governance) investing.
More than 1,300 institutions controlling $14.5 trillion have divested in some way from fossil fuels, according to a tally by environmental group 350.org.
BlackRock and the $15 trillion fund industry should be broken up, antimonopoly group says

Other estimates are even larger. Funds controlling a total of about $18 trillion had a fossil fuel divestment policy as of August 2020, according to Raymond James — a staggering increase from just $2 billion in 2014 and $3 trillion in 2015.

"Burning fossil fuels is not necessary to sustain our economy and economic growth over the long run — and it's detrimental to our climate future," Rajiv Shah, the president of the Rockefeller Foundation, told CNN Business in an exclusive interview."

Which is a reason to drill for oil in The Bahamas? Times a changin' little Banana. Sorry you missed the message. Less than 200 years ago slavery was legal. Your point? How far you really want to go back in time? No glass houses. Just libraries and universities which you seem to discount entirely.
Still don't want to disclose your identity? I am happy to do so, banana. Just say the word.

"Exclusive: A $5 billion foundation literally founded on oil money is saying goodbye to fossil fuels."

So, every diplomat in the world is interfering politically? "At one time", as you say, all the other doctors laughed when one of them said, "maybe so many of our patients wouldn't die if we washed our hands in between." At one time ignorance was considered bliss. No longer. This K4C, was a letter. A letter by those who have already had the experience of being bamboozled by shysters. Some people may have watched the OBAN crisis and said, "Hey, let's do that again". Others may have said, "something ain't right here. We better be careful next time". But, political interference? Seriously? is this the fruit of our war on illiteracy and ignorance? For god's sake, there is not a serious scientist studying this issue that isn't highly alarmed, with all the new evidence and data pouring in. The others, like the ones who get paid by the oil industry have seemingly already sold their soul. I see which ones you choose to listen to.

Money, money, money. How much did the Horizon blowout cost? How much are we going to be sued for? Stop and read the emerging science. You have to be an absolute idiot to support drilling for oil in December, 2020. Every year we get loads of new science that humanity benefits from. Nearly every thinking person in the world who is paying attention to the science realizes that burning fossil fuels and the continued exploration for oil is disaterous for our planet. Most especially for The Bahamas. If you want to remain ignorant, have at it. But, some of us have kids and would like to see a livable planet for them. It's one thing to remain ignorant. I suppose that is a personal choice. It is quite another to ask others to remain ignorant. What is the point of education, when we continue to reject education's results.

Don't be so ridiculous.

"The drill" you say? Sounds like a desperate, money hungry oil man phrase to me. Sort of disrespectful to use our former PM to associate with an oily scam.
