It’s insane It’s insane It’s insane It’s insane It’s insane……….

 

Why are we still using fossil fuels for just about everything? Why?

Outside of some very specific reasons like lubricants for heavy machinery there is no reason.

Renewable energy shouldn’t be a problem. Too many people fall for the myth that we need fossil fuels.

First of all Oil and it’s byproducts are poison to the human body. It is flat out poison. No matter how you mask it, it will kill you. Yes kill you.

Oil creates geopolitical nightmares. Yes we have one now, but this isn’t the only one or will be the last one if we keep relying on oil.

A few people make billions the rest of the world gets hurt economically every time there is a geopolitical nightmare that causes the price of oil to skyrocket.

Nowadays it is getting more and more expensive to drill for oil and that is why companies don’t create new oil wells until the price of oil reaches a certain point and they feel comfortable it will stay that high. Only the producers benefit, the rest of us suffer pocketbook nightmares just to get to work.

Why do people continue to believe this myth we need fossil fuels? There is no real answer. The oil companies will put out their propaganda, yet if you dig deep enough it flies in the face of common sense.

Nothing is perfect, but renewable energy is much better than fossil fuels.

Also plastics are not doing the human body and the environment any favors. We could go back to glass containers. Sure it would take some investment and we would need to recycle glass, yet it can be done. Remember when we paid five cents for the bottle and got it back when we returned the bottle. Updating this policy will work. And if someone says that takes effort, laugh at them. That small effort will save us a fortune in health care costs for all the poison destroying our bodies from the byproducts of oil. And yes we are paying a price for this madness.

Cardboard or wooden boxes, again something that can be recycled with effort. We are only fooling ourselves that we need plastics. And even if people are inconsiderate and just leave this trash around, eventually it biodegrades unlike plastic.

There are many alternatives to oil. We just need to make the investment in time, money and energy to get us there. There is absolutely no reason to continue to destroy this planet so a few people who already have billions can make billions more.

Another advantage would be the development of new energies will create new wealth to help close the wealth divide or at least create new millionaires etc.

No matter what the oil industry says, there is no benefit to continuing this madness. Sure it won’t happen overnight so the people employed by the oil industry won’t lose employment right away. The transition takes time so the employment picture will not be radically affected if young people head to the new energy development instead of looking for oil field jobs.

And again getting off oil will reduce the number or unnecessary wars such as the one we are in right now.  The only person who truly benefits from the human race being on fossil fuels is the evil one. Everything else is interchangeable, saves lives, produces new industries and jobs, gives us a cleaner environment and allows humanity to grow not self destruct.
