The Globe and Mail reports that October 2010 saw increased oil production in the United States compared to 2008 and 2009, surprising, given all the talk of drilling moratoria and "peak oil." While we're well below the levels seen back in 1970, it's an amazing achievement nonetheless. In natural gas, the United States recently passed Russia to become the largest producer in the world. Perhaps there is some life in fossil fuels after all.
