Cartoon contrasts berry picking with do-it-yourself oil drilling and coal mining
PICK BERRIES DRILL OIL MINE COAL by Andy Singer, politicalcartoons.com
The September 2024 cartoon by Andy Singer presents three horizontal panels that place a familiar farm activity beside two industrial ones. In the top panel visitors gather strawberries at a pick-your-own stand and carry trays to an SUV. The middle panel shows workers collecting buckets of crude oil beneath drilling rigs and loading them into the same style vehicle. The bottom panel depicts miners pushing carts of coal from a tunnel and dumping the load into the vehicle. The signs read Pick Your Own Berries, Drill Your Own Oil and Mine Your Own Coal. The drawing underscores differences in scale, safety and equipment required for each activity.
