  • Tein kanssa kerran satsin samantyylisiä sytykkeitä. Sitten tajusin että marketin grillaushyllystä saa muutamalla eurolla 100kpl pönikän vastaavia parafiiniannoksia kätevässä annospussissa.

  • I only picked the two biggest things I could think of that require fossil fuels, but you're right. Plastics are used for everything because they are a wonder material. And so are fluorocarbons by the way, that's why they're also everywhere.

  • Increasing fuel prices would increase the cost of everything else too, lowering living standards globally. It would effectively be a flat tax for the whole humankind. I agree this would accelerate the green transition, but there's currently no direct replacement for diesel/heavy fuel oil (which container ships, heavy trucks and tractors require) and natural gas. Well there is biodiesel but that requires turning fields from growing food to growing oil plants needed for the fuel. Current battery tech is still only satisfactory for personal transportation.

  • This is a flawed take. The fossil firms sell because everyone wants to buy, and everyone wants to buy because the world is still absolutely dependent on fossil fuels. Stuff won't move without diesel and most of the calories humankind grows needs nitrogen from the Haber-Bosch process.
