- weweweoo 2y agoObviously the transition away from oil should be gradual, and the sectors which are hardest to transition could be given more time to do so. But there's no fundamental need for large scale use of oil, it's just the current infrastructure and limited tech that's the problem. Hundreds of millions will die due to climate change if we don't act.
