Because, as we have seen here, most of the green solutions to our industrial problems are not really viable at scale at the present moment. If they were this war would have been trivially ended since Russia would have no power over the developed world. This war is a perfect object lesson in exactly how dependent we are globally on fossil fuels. That we are more decades than we have left away from solving our hydrocarbon problem. And that if we do happen to cross peak oil in a few years (which will actually be good for climate change) the result won't be a transition to green energy but global war on an unprecedented scale. People paying close attention have been pointing this out for decades but dismissed as "pessimists" by green idealists.
