People don't want to burn hydrocarbons for energy they just want energy. The proof is in the pudding, if people wanted to burn hydrocarbons for energy there would be no renewable energy sources. Demand for energy drives a consumption for energy and these companies provide the energy. If we had instead learned how to convert puppies to energy in the late 19th century instead of fossil fuels, we'd probably be burning puppies.
