Oil drilling helps oil companies. Nuclear power threatens oil companies. We used to talk about replacing transportation fuels and low-carbon shipping (global energy). Now we talk about personal responsibility and rooftop solar (residential electricity). You can find oil company PR slide decks explaining why and how. Greenwashing worked, pushing the renewable ‘debate’ worked. We missed the windows on critical infrastructure change, and seemingly enjoy an unstable chunk of desert dictating global energy, inflation & food prices. <shrug> | ||

We're replacing ICE cars with EVs. Sales are rising every year. For long distance heavy transport, alternative fuels or battery-electric is not feasible yet. The transition will take decades. | ||
