The “off with their heads” and “by any means necessary” rhetoric is laughable and yes, petulant. For better or worse, the modern world would not exist without oil.

Your arguments are so far removed from reality that they are difficult to take seriously.

Instead of funneling resources to counter productive efforts like building more armies of do-nothing government regulators and gifting trillions to the private sector via regulatory capture the focus should be on new efficient, competitive technology for electric automobiles, energy generation and storage. Particularly on cheap storage

Carbon taxes and sequestration are simply someone lobbying for the right to make a buck while adding no value whatsoever.



Oh. I see your understanding of the current situation we are in is somewhat incomplete.

Frankly, that’s relatable. I wish that I also believed that greening current tech would at least buy us some time.

For your own peace of mind, I’d recommend not to look into it too much.
