"So what is stopping them from leasing the land... I'll hold my breath waiting for you to say "the Democrats"." There's a lot of oil shale in Utah. The Feds have given permission, the state hasn't, although it's a very red state. Why? We've got a lot of very scenic land here in Utah, where the oil shale is. Oil shale mining is like strip mining, only worse. It destroys the land, and leaves piles of processed rock in it's wake. The people that want to mine the shale don't want to pay to restore the land. Much of the land here, redrock canyon country, would be un-restorable and ruined. I'd guess it's the same in other western states. en.wikipedia.org Most of the less nature-raping techniques are still experimental and require huge amounts of power and water. en.wikipedia.org
