> I'm a huge proponent of stronger regulation and government involvement in corporate day-to-day. I agree, however we aren’t seeing this in any meaningful fashion, let alone the amount we need to be seeing it to stave off catastrophe. So given this context, I am all for citizen/employee protest in whatever way required to get things to change course. > It's likely that we would agree on quite a bit. Where we disagree is on the solution to the problems society faces. I agree with this. Sorry if my last post was a bit aggressive. > The solution is not forcing the global economy to grind to a halt by abruptly forcing oil companies to stop extracting oil. I agree with this, but the longer we kick the can down the road, the more urgent the situation becomes and the more drastic the medicine we’ll need to take. So while right now we can possibly get by with a phase out so long as we start getting much more aggressive on renewables, in 20 years we’ll likely be in a “we have to turn off the oil taps immediately” situation. Would’ve been nice if Exxon hadn’t hidden their climate change data in the 60s and given everyone a chance for a peaceful transition. But they didn’t, and so I support everyone refusing to work on energy projects.
