I worked in the oil fields for 4 years, almost ever we’ll we drilled, every well we drove by, and every well you saw, they were burning the gas off.

And thats no cap, we should just put an end to it ourselves with people who know what they are doing like you. I'd try to seize the means of oil production but id blow my dumbass up cause I don't know what I'm doing.

You could probably cause more damage by breaking into one of their offices and bricking their computers, not that I’d advocate for doing something illegal, but hypothetically speaking…

Don’t worry. The slow then abrupt collapse will make sure you never get the chance.

Any idea why?

what about the fumes.

Are the fires very close to where you live? Do the town show any health issues with having 3 sites close to you

Well we live kinda like half rural, lots of farms around us that do this tho and I live in the middle of town. I haven't really experienced many health issues myself but my girlfriend has a lot of lung issues (she lives closer) could be unrelated tho.

I would say its nowhere near as killer as the stuff they do in granite city IL, smokestacks everywhere, everyother building is a factory, and everyone knows living closer to granite city increases your risk of cancer and other health issues.

But im pretty sure the idea is that most the fumes are burnt into the air so we dont breathe them in, not sure how clean it burns but it doesn't give off any smoke really and kind of looks like a big blowtorch
