I can’t tell if you’re joking. But everything you just said is wrong. It’s not literally dead dinosaurs. Most of it is from plant matter. The earth makes a lot of plant matter. Oil seeping into a well from surrounding rock is not a mystery, and it doesn’t mean the well is “full” again, and it doesn’t mean it’s going to last forever.
And using hydro, wind, geothermal, nuclear, and solar isn’t going to destroy our economy.

Except we dont know that it is running out. Capped once empty wells are found to be full of oil. The same people who were giving mercury to kids for cuts and scratches are the ones who decided oil wa derived from spoiled dinosaurs. That's a lot of dinosaurs. Less dinosaurs by volume than there are people dying now and, by their logic, also turning into oil. For all we actually know oil is just the organic earths blood, replenisheshed by its liver just like ours. Decimating economies to save us from fossil fluid depletion is on par with causing hepatitis outbreaks in the 2020s by switching to plastic bags in the 80s to save the rain forests which turned out not to actually be the lungs of the earth. Al gore invented the series of tubes we know as he internet to spread fear mongering. Work toward oil independence because we want more efficient tooling, not because some suit with an ego needs it to happen.

So they missed on the exact timing, but most of it is gone. The bit about the “end of humanity” was a clickbait headline someone attached to that. The kid thought a clickbait headline was representing the real story, believed it and retweeted it. She was wrong. Her 15 minutes are up anyway, and now it’s “Greta who?” unless you’re someone who wants to pick on her. One kid being wrong doesn’t mean the earth isn’t getting warmer or that it’s not a problem. For any who don’t believe that the climate will create problems for our descendants, and that it’s nothing to do with us if it does, do you at least believe these points? 1) No matter how much fossil fuel there is it’s not infinite so it makes sense to conserve it. 2) To get the oil price we have, we sell to where it’s more expensive and buy from where it’s cheaper. “Where it’s cheaper” is almost universally countries that don’t like us (or we don’t like), and reducing consumption means we can buy less from them without paying more. I know people made a lot of hay about “energy independence” when domestic oil production exceeded domestic demand a few years ago, but I think they were overlooking that if we actually tried to be independent on oil the price would skyrocket on account of not having those cheaper imports in our supply and losing the revenue from the exports. We’ve also long since exceeded that production level, but it’s not worth crowing about it in 2022-2023. The price remains high because Russia is mostly off the market, and as we increase production Saudi Arabia (and OPEC in general) reduces theirs to preserve the high price. The low price sometimes cited occurred when demand plummeted during lock downs. Then everybody (USA included) cut production because low prices are bad for the oil producers. If you’re not on board with fossil fuel reduction for climate change reasons you should be on board because it’s simply better for our country if we stop relying on something that will eventually run out, which finances regimes that are belligerent to us, and finances business interests that meddle in both our foreign and domestic policy for their own benefit. -Adam From: AF <af-boun...@af.afmug.com<mailto:af-boun...@af.afmug.com>> On Behalf Of Chuck McCown via AF Sent: Thursday, June 29, 2023 1:15 PM To: AnimalFarm Microwave Users Group <af@af.afmug.com<mailto:af@af.afmug.com>> Cc: ch...@go-mtc.com<mailto:ch...@go-mtc.com> Subject: Re: [AFMUG] This thing on? She did say :“A top climate scientist is warning that climate change will wipe out humanity unless we stop using fossil fuels over the next five years.” That was 5 years ago. So the warning seems to say that we had 5 years to stop using fossil fuels or humanity will be wiped out. So time to get your affairs in order...
