I promise you that the reason I drive my car everyday has nothing to do with propaganda from the oil companies in any meaningful way. I'm 100% certain they covered up the truth, but I have no reason to believe that had everyone known the truth, anyone would have cared beyond hardcore environmentalists. Most everyone does what's convenient and necessary until otherwise required.
