Great photo! Kinda says it all. We currently burn 100M barrels of oil/day, 13.3M in the US alone. No oil, no plastic. Global heating is driven by two engines: the Greenhouse Effect from GHGs and human generated waste heat from fossil fuel burning and animal metabolism. The standard for AC systems in the Mid-west is 160 BTUs/hr./person, and we have at least 16B domestic farm animals generating metabolic waste heat and CH4. What could go wrong? Everything?
Oil is the Devil’s excrement. Oil is corrupted sunlight. Oil is our chthonic libido smeared on the firmament.
