Brooke Martin+FollowWhy Oil Isn’t Going Anywhere SoonHere’s a hot take for your next coffee break: While everyone’s talking about going green, countries like the UAE, Iraq, Brazil, and even Norway are quietly ramping up oil production.

If you’re watching gas prices or thinking about energy stocks, keep an eye on these moves—they could mean cheaper fill-ups or new investment opportunities. #Business #Industry #OilBoom114Share
