An analysis of the US refining sector, based on linear programming (LP) modeling, finds that refining plausibly high volumes of Canadian oil sands crudes in US refineries in 2025 would lead to a modest increase in refinery CO 2 emissions (ranging between 5.4% to 9.3%) from a 2010 baseline, depending upon the supply scenario.

GM killed that car because of back room deals with oil companies, and now they expect us to believe that they are just so cutting edge now? GM killed that car because of back room deals with oil companies" GM "killed" that experiment because it wasnt even CLOSE to being cost effective. It is 12 years later. GM would only lease them.
