Oogway, You are right about polluting the planet - and destroying rthe natural world is the same as destroying the house in which we all live. This goes together with Climate Change, unfortunately. Changing the composition of the atmosphere via fossil fuel combustion will change the earth, but the earth will survive. Agriculture? Coastal Cities? Not so much? We will see massive migration - you think illegal immigration is a problem now? Wait 20 years....

I would point out though, that oil companies are spending much more defending their industry and the stud quo that the supposed forces you see behind the "climate/renewables" campaign.

Fina point, you wrote" "There was Obama who warned us we had 6 months left to a catastrophe" - but no reference? So this is totally dismissible. What is true is that as we increase CO2 levels, we come closer to Climate tipping points - such as the melting of artic permafrost that will release vast quantities of methane that will accelerate runaway climate change to such an extent that weaning ourselves off fossil fuel won't stop it. YOU won't feel that, though it could happen in the next 10-20 years. Our Grandchildren will live in a world with an unstable climate...no stable season and rainfall, how do we feed a planet of 10 billion people? (Here is a great book on tipping points and how to avoid them:
