Wow GREAT point actually, I am a huge fan of plastic. It’s impossibly tough to know how to support plastic without supporting the combustion industry (Miltary-Incendiary Complex?), but that’s life for everyone who can afford to choose their job. I have a friend who’s struggling with how to use his ChemE degree to help create lifesaving medicine without giving his career to some of our most cartoonishly evil corporations, and I personally struggled with the desire to work on LEO satellites without supporting the US military directly.
A good lesson to never deal in absolutes :). I’ll say this instead: most people working in oil and gas aren’t doing it because they considered the facts and decided that it was a good future. They’re just there because it pays well and they figure the earth will prolly be fine. I mean, it’s huge! And I’ve never seen a climate apocalypse…
