https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:World_energy_consumption.svg https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:World_energy_consumption.... We are a long, long way to reducing fossil fuel demand. We've barely even seen a leveling of coal demand and with increasing prices for gas and oil, coal may still be yet to see its peak. Certainly in China, fossil fuel demand will continue to skyrocket for decades. They're perfectly happy to buy from Russia, or Iran, or Saudi, or Syria. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:World_Coal_Consumption.svg https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:World_Coal_Consumption.sv... For all the predictions of the demise of coal the fossil fuel industry driven propaganda about the green movement and the triumph of renewables, global coal consumption almost doubled over the past 20 years. The number one way to put the squeeze on petroleum regimes is to increase production in "friendly" countries. Number two would be massive expansion of nuclear power, which is long overdue for a Manhattan Project (joke intended) to seriously address climate change anyway.
