    I wonder if there are any greener alternatives to oil that can be provided by the companies that currently use oil? Perhaps ones that might incur a bit of a hit to those company’s profits? And that hit to profits being the only reason those company’s havent shifted to the greener alternatives?

    But no. Its my fault that i have no choice but to fill up my shitty diesel engine to get to work. Because i can definitely swap to a bicycle to make me already 40 minute at 60mph commute…

      It’s not your fault. It’s no one’s fault. We’re all out here living our lives with the hands we’ve been dealt. I’m only pushing back on the feel good take of “80 companies responsible for most emissions” or whatever the stat is. It’s a blatant attempt to deflect feeling any kind of responsibility or agency or having played a part at all. We all do what we do, and we’ll feel the consequences collectively.

        My whole comment was sarcasm. I k ow its not my fault. I have contributes and i wish i had a way to not do that. But this is the world we live in. If big companies were so profit driven then we would already be alot greener and the planet wouldnt be spiralling into heat death.
