It’s perfect”: Helium discovery in northern Minnesota may be biggest ever in North America::For a century, the U.S. Government-owned the largest helium reserve in the country, but the biggest exporters now are in Russia, Qatar and Tanzania.

    If it takes too much energy it’s not exactly “better for the environment” or whatever nonsense argument he’s trying to make.

    Neither is just storing it.

      energy expenditure would be similar to purifying it from helium concentrate, so not much difference. considering small volume of balloon helium this wouldn’t probably mean large increase. i also don’t know what this guy is about
