I think you underestimate the diverse background and the amount of brain power within last generation. There are scientists that specialize specifically in adaptation and renewable energy. While yes our world is made around fossil fuels there are alternatives that are available now you just need to look. And instead of stopping fossil fuel expansion and focus on at least taking steps on getting off of them like they are asking, demanding, begging. The world leaders are expanding oil, literally the opposite. There are no clean fossil fuels, no clean coal, we need to switch to renewables as fast as possible. Instead we're doing the opposite in not giving out oil field licenses, leaving high CO2 emitting markets unregulated and allowing for more brown coal extraction. (Zbg: Lutzerath) We're in deep, and getting off fossil fuels by 2030 is a long shot but what options do we have unless we want millions displaced or dead? I commend them for fighting so hard despite Germany almost labeling them terrorists and so many people wanting them dead for being a nucense. Lastly look at how little has changed even with the 'calm' and 'peaceful' protests... Not much. The tipping point is near and reducing your carbon footprint will do nothing. This literally came from Shell as a way to spin the blame off of them. The government is the only way out whether we like it or not, so they are some of the ones applying pressure that we need for governments to actually change. So I believe it's better to try than to say 'we can't do this, that's a moonshot' and give up
