Honesty this is a good thing. Higher prices make transition away from oil mote profitable and it seems we're only allowed to do things if they're profitable. Maybe a good old fashioned oil.crisis is what.the world needs. We put up with 1973 style shit for a little while and then investments away from oil happen and then we never go back. We have tools we didn't back then, like good wind and solar, ebikes, more developed transit networks in cities, etc. So it won't even be as sucky

Rules:

Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
