No, it's not "on the end user", in my not-so-humble opinion. We should have been much more heavily investing in renewables & carbon neutrality (factories to make batteries and solar, nuclear, anything) by the time the fracking boom happened. Fossil fuel companies were investing in misleading the public about global warming instead, in the same way that tobacco companies invested in misleading the public about the health issues caused by smoking. To this day they are still working to undermine efforts to transition to cleaner energy, for the sake of greater profits, even while their public relations efforts pretend they are pro-"green". The country/world was steered toward a cliff by self-interested people without sound judgement or morals pulling financial levers to enrich themselves.
