    I mean, the stuff inside the infrastructure basically exists to burn, almost like it’s asking for it.

    That being said, there are some very useful non-combustitory uses of crude oil. It’d be nice if its wholesale extraction could be limited to actual durable uses with less climatory impact and not just to be turned into CO2, H2O(v), and various other badder stuffs.

      My first year Chemistry dissertation was about this. Of all the useful things you can do with hydrocarbons burning them is the most wasteful.

      Honestly can’t tell which one is which. Most manifesto’s don’t do anything but social-signalling; and neither does the average climate report…
