"The vast majority of Albertans want oil and gas companies to pay for cleanup of old oil wells." Coalition for Responsible Energy (C4RE) poll.

"Landowners’ frustration with industry is reaching a boiling point... Unless these issues are addressed, there can be no consideration of increased production, no new pipelines, or carbon capture and storage. It makes no sense."

Albertans Want Polluters To Pay, But Government Trying to Pass Bill to Public
The Alberta Energy Regulator “has black marks all over it for being one sided to development companies like oil and gas and coal,” says Bill Trafford.

💥BUSTED: the Government of Alberta has now decided not to recall recalls.

I'm glad to be here in Didsbury for a panel discussion with Q&A hosted by @c4re-for-ab.bsky.social . The provincal Gov't must not be allowed to slide cleanup costs from oil & gas onto farmers, ranchers, landowners and taxpayers. @phillipmeintzer.bsky.social @jennyyeremiy.bsky.social

Many of these people are in Alberta, where aging oil and gas wells litter our landscape and leak methane into our atmosphere.

This new @amnesty.org study is damning.

A quarter of the world’s population lives within a 3 mile radius if a fossil fuel project. That’s 2b people.

We at the C4RE coalition mounted this challenge to the Alberta Energy Regulator’s orphan well levy decisions.

If the orphan fund (citizen safety net) has holes in it because of Regulator decisions, it can’t protect Albertans from orphan well closure costs.

Perhaps the next regulatory reconsideration application from @c4re-for-ab.bsky.social with the AER will be to revisit the deposit calculations on oil sands following the Alberta Government’s lead on renewables. 😤

Levy charged to Alberta oil companies too low to cover orphan well costs: report | Globalnews.ca
A new report from the University of Calgary says the fund that's used to pay for the cleanup of orphan wells in Alberta is massively underfunded.

Unlike renewable energy developers, oil & gas companies do not need to post security deposits for cleanup, nor do they have any timelines to do that cleanup.
Stop the Drill and Dash, enforce the Polluter Pay principle!

Who will fund the orphans?
Alberta’s oil & gas cleanup liabilities could hit $120B—$25K per Albertan.
Watch the C4RE campaign explain what the Orphan Fund is, why it matters, and how to protect it.
🎥 + 🔥 image below. Alberta - start getting up to speed.
#abpoli #orphanwells #cdnpoli #ableg #C4RE
Large bold white text at the top asks: “WHO WILL FUND THE ORPHANS?” Below it in yellow: “Alberta’s Orphan Fund is underfunded. Industry or taxpayers—who pays?” In large orange text: “That’s potentially $25,000 per Albertan.” At the bottom of the graphic, a warning-style box with a yellow exclamation mark icon and the headline: “Did You Know?” appears in yellow on dark red. Beside it in white text: “Alberta’s oil and gas liabilities could reach $120 billion—that’s $25,000 per Albertan.” The image raises concerns about the massive financial burden of unfunded oil and gas cleanup costs in Alberta and who will ultimately pay for orphaned well liabilities.
