npub1g0tuf634rz4suczwj7kgnecr6cyt0eu9xmp3sp0fku68mqehq4msp3tvm4 (npub1g0t…tvm4) I have always felt that ‘just stop oil’ was a doomed approach. We need to focus on demand reduction, not supply reduction. The oil companies will fight tooth and nail to preserve their business models.
Governments should focus on using tax (on fossil fuels) and grants (for renewables and for demand reduction like home insulation) to encourage that pivot.
