The eco-extortion that has caused us to reduce our oil production and refining capacity has been a great part of the run up in oil prices over the last 2 years. Especially in the aspect of refining capacity and distribution ability. We had over 300 refinaries in 1970 and today have fewer than 200.

You will be hard pressed to name a single refinery as operated by a major oil company that was shut down under eco-extortion. Of the percentage you mention, all were small operators that were driven out by the majors or their transportation eneities or via eco-extortion.
