The dangerous delusion of a global transition to “just electricity”
Eliminating crude oil, before a replacement is in place, would rid the world of planes, airports, ships, medical, social media communications, toilets, and more.

About 60 nuclear power reactors are currently being constructed in 15 countries, notably China, India, and Russia.
We stand too lose far too much if the anti-oil crowd has their way.
Will American autos be able to compete?
Could diesel conditioners even save money?
Unwanted electric vehicles are piling up.
Autocratic China is the biggest beneficiary of all from the Western strategy of jumping out of an airplane without a parachute.
From the proverb “you can't have your cake and eat it too” tells us that you can’t rid the world of crude oil and continue to enjoy the products and fuels manufactured from fossil fuels.
Abandoned wind turbines pose significant environmental and safety risk
As ESG enthusiasts know, wind and solar manufacture nothing for the eight billion on this planet as they can only generate intermittent electricity from unreliable breezes and sunshine.
As Biden focuses on ridding the USA of fossil fuels, our navy could end up dependent on Chinese refineries.
The forced transition to occasional electricity generation from breezes and sunshine has proven to be ultra-expensive for the wealthy countries of Germany, Australia, Great Britain, and the USA. For the poor... devastating.
The frustration stems from the devastating impact that an enormously complex system of rules and regulations involving federal, state, and regional agencies are having on individual businesses and entire industries.
Just for electricity from EV batteries, and the electricity occasionally generated from wind turbines and solar panels, the World Bank estimates that more than three billion tons of metals and minerals could be required over the next three decades.
Today, the only supply chain for the parts and components for wind turbines and solar panels are made with fossil fuels!
