    Tom Burgis / An American #oilcompany connected to Trump is preparing to sink wells in remote Greenland despite not having received permission from the local authoritiesAs the US president renews his threats to claim the vast Arctic territory, materials to prepare for drilling were brought ashore in

  4. Licensed to drill? How a #Trump-linked Texas #OilCompany is elbowing its way into #Greenland

    #GreenlandEnergy says billions of barrels of crude could lie beneath territory and claims it has permission to bring drilling kit ashore – a claim denied by #Nuuk

    by Tom Burgis, 9 Jul 2026

    "On 10 June, a snowy-haired American in his 60s addressed the residents of a remote Greenland hamlet. He was there to tell them about a business venture supported by figures linked to Donald Trump. 'So,' Robert Price said via an interpreter, 'we have a project to drill for oil here.'

    "The Texas oil company that Price represents, Greenland Energy, hopes to prove that billions of barrels of crude lie underground by bringing in 300 shipping containers of drilling kit.

    " 'We have the permit to put the equipment on the land,' footage of the gathering in Ittoqqortoormiit shows Price saying. 'And then we’ve filed our permits – pending approval – to drill.'

    "But Greenland’s resources ministry said that contrary to Price’s claim, there were
    'no actually active permissions for any exploration activity or permissions for preparations for these activities'.

    "The dispute threatens a showdown between the Trump-linked backers of Greenland Energy and the authorities in the vast, sparsely populated territory. Trump’s lieutenants are using the prospect of an American oil find in Greenland to bolster their case for an American takeover."

    [...]

    "The wells are expected to be drilled in an area protected by the global #RamsarConvention to preserve #wetlands. David Boertmann, an expert on Greenland’s birds, said the #ConservationZone hosts important numbers of barnacle geese and pink-footed geese as well as whimbrel, golden plover, Sabine’s gull and snowy owl, plus #muskoxen. Oil exploration activities could threaten the birds’ habitat, Boertmann said."

  8. "Ithaca Energy, wants to get Cambo approved for drilling.
    Last time, thousands of people across the world refused to let it happen and we forced Shell to pull out from the project!
    Ithaca thinks they can succeed where Shell failed. We’ll show them how wrong they are.
    We cannot stand by as North Sea extraction becomes a revenue stream to a company with links to genocide.
    Sign the petition to say: stop Cambo, Rosebank and this financial pipeline."

    #aljazeera respect for your high quality interesting reporting, but it's a bit of a irony a country (#qatar) who's #economy is running to almost 100% on #bigoil where almost 100% (except the foreigners) are working for the one and only single #king owned #oilcompany which results (fantastically) into 0% #unemployment statistics (tradingeconomics.com/qatar/une) makes a #documentary about #unemployment in #China

    #unemployment is very #dangerous if #private companies do not get enough #loans from #banks to build real things

    the #government needs to create jobs (exactly the OPPOSITE of what the #trump and #elonmusk lead #USA are doing right now = they gonna make their #economy worse! NOT BETTER by increasing gap between #rich and #poor

    (the #rich simply do hoard their wealth and not spend it thus not increase #job growth)

    #unemployment is a great danger to #governments as #population could do #protests and #revolution

    the #government (#China or #Europe or #USA) needs to step in and foster #entrepreneurship and foster #bank #banks giving loans to people with ideas

    this of course can only be done if the #wealthy are forced to provide #loans to #entrepreneurs by threatening high #tax, if they don't

    the worst #solution to unemployment would be #war

    #soldiers are (mostly) also paid workers for the #government

    so the #nation has to spend billions anyway, so it would be #smart to spend it on #entrepreneurship (#creative creating things) not on #war (destroying things and lifes)

  19. California #PublicEmployee #pension fund #Calpers investment in #ExxonMobil called into question after oil company legal battles vs activist #shareholders who hoped to urge corp away from #FossilFuels & #GreenhouseGas emissions.

    The govt worker retirement plan owns a billion dollars worth of stock in the #OilCompany, which is only 0.2% of equity, yet #California treasurer #FionaMa said. “As the largest public #PensionFund in the country, we have a responsibility to lead on issues that threaten to undermine shareowners.”

  20. If anybody doubted that the #UN #COP talks had turned into a self-parody, check out who was named to lead #COP28: Sultan Ahmed Al Jaber, the CEO of a #UAE #oilcompany, the world's 12th biggest.
    The question now is: who and how will an alternative #climateconference be organised, for all the actors actually committed to reducing #emissions? The question is in your court readers. #climateaction #fossilfuels #climatebreakdown
