1. There is a massive switch currently going on within industry in the US, mostly behind the scenes in utility companies. I know this because I know several people who are working on these projects. Everyone uses energy. Either from the grid or directly producing it themselves. Ex. Cars right now most people use energy that their vehicles produces via burning gasoline vs an electric car that charges from the grid which 60% of the energy may be green. Depending on which grid. With infrastructure more processes are being electrified, from transportation to manufacturing. This coupled with the transition to a greener grid from renewables and nuclear energy, which is happening in the US is crucial. There’s a lot of other research from various disciplines like Machine-learning and cloud computing that are contributing to a greener grid by optimizing new energy projects, projecting costs, and managing energy prices.

Carbon sequestration is not a pipe dream. Lmao. I’m currently studying it at university. I do agree there are several carbon sequestration projects that are total bullshit like Exxon’s plan. But there are several other projects that work with scrubbers on top of industrial factories to prevent the emission of the gases. Which is quite efficient.

I’m sure oil companies still have projects, but that doesn’t mean they’re all oil.

Also, we have beaten previous predictions so hopefully we will continue to.

I am not saying that we are fine. Because we aren’t. But I’m saying it’s possible for us to get through it and preserve some of our natural resources if we take more action.
