> The industry is not serious about any of this. no disagree, they are very serious about controlling the outcomes as any lawyer or executive will do.. I read years ago that the divide is more along the lines of "EU and India support complete replacement of carbon-based energy, while the USA and OPEC+ support transitions (somehow)" Also note, those parties are not one voice internally.. lots of rancor and argument behind closed doors between factions; lots of agitation among intellectuals and social groups. Blaming Saudi Arabia in the American news story is an excellent example of high-stakes propaganda. It is the captured policy process in the USA that is the real obstacle. This news item blaming one nationality is classic diversion tactic.
