Default Re: Sweden to abandon all oil within 15 years

Something is not right about this article...

Reading the major swedish newspaper sites (http://www.svd.se & http://www.dn.se) I see no mention of this.

Also the article in the Guardian seem to speak more about providing alternatives then to abandoning oil if you read this quote

Quote:
"Our dependency on oil should be broken by 2020," said Mona Sahlin, minister of sustainable development. "There shall always be better alternatives to oil, which means no house should need oil for heating, and no driver should need to turn solely to gasoline."
So I think this is just a play for the galleries...

To bad, for a second it made me vroud to be Swedish...
