- Many Californians don’t realize just how many products they use every day that rely on oil and gas.
As we chart a path forward for California's energy future, we invite you to join the conversation and learn more at califewithoutoil.com/
Without oil, you're naked, hungry, and homeless. How about every structure building materials are trucked, logged, water, sewer, power lines take oil to install and maintain. Roads are made with asphalt, petroleum, trucked and built by oil ran equipment.
roads can be dirt or concrete - like freeways, trucks are becoming electrified ! For now we will need some oil related products but just because those we use a lot of them doesn't mean they can't be replaced with non-oil products. All these oil uses and products will be of little use if your coasts are flooded and you're baking in higher and higher temps. Geez y'all are stupid !
Concrete is made with fossil fuels
Diesel semi tires are made from petroleum products. Most of our transportation in fact needs oil. Even items not made of plastic were produced in factories that use petroleum products.
@@antibureaucrat The "Geez y'all are stupid" comment lets us know where you are. You are assuming what you are being told is true. And if it were true, then we should be worried. BUT, what if it is not? What if the only slightly warmer temperatures and higher CO2s just promoted more plant growth, and not rising sea levels and "baking" temps? Here is one courtesy example that you might be intentionally lied to about: In the 30s, in the USA, we had the highest temperatures for a few years. It has never been that hot since. Remember? The "Dust Bowl"? CO2 levels were 20% lower back then. Yet you are being told we will "bake" some day because if we don't reduce our CO2 output. We are being lied to. One day, we'll act like we didn't really believe it. But we know we did...and impoverished ourselves and promoted the impoverishing.
The tires are made with oil products, even electric cars use more oil based products. We aren't stupid, we are realistic. If you don't like using things made with oil, get rid of your phone, computers, tv, and 99 percent of the other products. @antibureaucrat
Petroleum and affordable energy lifts societies from third work to first world.
Yes. Without petroleum those countries will remain third-world! Sounds like this is what some globalists want.
Hopefully, California will be soon an example of what not to do. 🙏
It has been an example what not to do for a long time now. That's why people are leaving California at a rate which declines it's population instead of grows it. The problem with this hoever is that they move to places that aren't like California and then vote for and support the same stupidity that led to them wanting to leave California. It's like a cancer that spreads. WE DON'T WANT THEIR CANCER!!
that happened decades ago....
@@jackjohnsen8506 Very true.
It already is. Just look at the masses leaving California for places like Texas.
Oh they already are. I got out of there in 2005 because I could see where it was going, and I'm so glad I did!
I love how they held back on having the clothing disappear, since many of the fibers are artificial these days and even if those clothes are 100% natural materials, the equipment involved in their manufacture (not to mention shipping and storage) used oil products.
This just make it sound like some modern conveniences would disappear. What would actually happen is transport and food production and supply chains would collapse if we stopped using oil tomorrow, likely ending in a famine and anarchy.
Printed circuit boards that go into every phone, computer and electronic device are petroleum based products. Every technological advance we've had over the past 125 years depends on petroleum.
@@safeandeffectivelol well we could take out all the oil in transportation in 5-10 years if we wanted to. Then using cc to make non fossil fuel carbon products
@TheQsam1
out of ALL transportation? You know airplanes and giant ships can never be battery operated to transport any products for the sheer weight of the batteries required to power them? They are already trying to do that with small boats and they are SINKING during testing.
@@eds7343 hydrogen, will probably be used to transport tankers. Do you have a link to those sinking boats? Saying things like never, will most likely make you look like the guy that said that there will only be a need for 10 computers in the world
Without petroleum, fertilizer made from N2 would be very limited. Hence, not enough food for the population
That's part of the goal...
Reduce population. 🤷🏼♂️
That's exactly what "they" want. When they want to reduce the carbon footprint 👣....it's US they are talking about!!
That’s the plan, depopulation
So, there's actually people with common sense in California?
None the smart ones moved out
There's like three left
Remember the studies in the 1950s about rats allowed to breed in a confined space, and how they started killing and eating each other? That's the cities in Blue states. Outside the cities the majority are conservatives living good lives with common sense.
The leftist nuts all live along the coast. The inland areas are dominated by conservatives; you just can't see them because they're such a statewide minority.
Where Paleosi inhabits with it’s flying monkeys 😂
Yes, please, make a series of these videos highlighting EVERYTHING in our society that has its roots in oil. EVERYTHING, with particular emphasis on agriculture, food processing, trucking, trains, shipping and aircraft. It ain't all just about cars, y'know. (Yes, I know you do.) And don't forget clothing and medicines. Thank you in spades!
Well said. Finally, someone gives a great factual presentation to the public.
Our apparel industry would be eliminated. Well done video.
No, there are alternatives.
@@VijaygKamat Yes, since it is warm in California, they can go naked. It's an alternative. Here in Alaska, we'll just kill a bear or caribou and wear its skin.
Nah, still have cotton, leather, and wool. Pelts too.
Only luxury apparel would be hit hard.
@@crazysquirrel9425 Yup, get out there and start pickin' that cotton, squirrel, 'cause you ain't running any combine or other machinery! And get some gloves made of leather but not stitched with nylon thread (of course), so your hands don't get too bloody that first hour of picking.
@@scottrees9610 Guess you never heard of leather thread?
Or wearing skins?
Picking cotton is not my forte`. But for certain others it is.
It would set our living standard back a hundred years and the number of poor would make the great depression seem like nothing!
What makes me laugh is these people protesting to stop oil are holding up banners made from oil products, not to mention their Shoes, Glasses, water bottles and many things.
And their cell phones
Wow. Ads like this needed to happen a long time ago.
Most everything people use is made with a petroleum product. Well done Aera!
Thank you for sharing - this is great!
One of the things I've learned in life is not to throw things away until I have a suitable replacement.
Thank you, Aera. This is great
Oil is going NOWHERE.
You would be standing out in a field with everyone completely naked. That's the crappifornia and the world's way.
Such an important message, well said! 👏👏
House gone, hair products gone, skin care gone, plumbing gone, electrical gone, clothes gone...
Lives gone because people would die without the benefit of oil and gas.
@@Eye_Witness Only 95% of the population would die
You forgot to take the aluminum cans, the home, and the grass.
Well done. Keep showing people how much we need oil and gas.
This is FANTASTIC!!
You could take out almost everything else as well. Maybe you can keep the grass and trees, if your neighbor doesn't eat them 'cuz they have no food.
In Canada producing an ad like this will land you in prison.
they should have disappeared the whole house xD trucks had to bring all those materials up there. Hell, big machines probably leveled those hills hahaha
And their clothes.
Co2 is plant food.
Just Stop Oil...while holding a sign made with petroleum based products.
Why is there still a fence around their yard? That would be gone too!
So refreshing to see all the positive comments regarding fossil fuels. I thought the world was filled with myopic and dangerous climate zealots.
Pharmaceuticals, fire retardants, fertilizers, plastics and energy all come from oil. There are 6000 individual products made from oil. You couldn't get through your day without them. The discovery of oil led to an unprecedented rise at unprecedented speed in human longevity, GDP growth, nutrition and standards of living.
CO2 is plant food, plant more vegetation, especially edibles or those that be used in construction, anything from tables and chairs to complete buildings
No oil?
Just think what things were like from ABOUT, 1880 and EARLIER. That's near what we should expect life to be like without oil.
Might be a good time to get some books and learn some things on how people lived back then just in case. 😱
.
I see the family still wearing shoes and clothes? Without oil, they'd be stark naked!
who clicked on this video thinking that it was about "life without olive oil"(in California) ???
Explore all the medical supplies in your hospital that wouldn't exist without oil and gas.
Well done Aera
Here's the real reason they want to stop oil. They know that 90% of the people living today would die from starvation and disease. This is not a bug; this is what these evil people want. Let that sink in.
The people demanding the end of oil, are all anti capitalists. That's their goal.
Don’t forget fertilizers, clothing, disease control, etc.
They Should Have Done the Clothes!
Nice video! Everything we own was once on a truck, so if you get rid of diesel fuel you have nothing, and don't even try to tell me about all electric big rigs. Not one has been made that can do the job, nor will one ever be.
Well said let ‘em live without out oil for week see how they feel then. Maybe just live in a cave!
Some people just need to be schooled on this video and see it better yet go to some of their home's and remove things that were made thanks to oil 😮
The people who say
"just stop oil" are protesting for their own demise and ours too if they are successful.
Drill baby, drill.
It ain't what you do, it's the way that you do it.
We don't need to cease using oil altogether comma it's a great lubricant. We need to stop burning it for energy when it's not necessary anymore! I'm nearly transition my family away from burning anything for energy! As soon as I find out whether America will still be america, the solar panels will go up! I drive electric vehicles and I would love to have the sun power my vehicle instead of Exxon Mobil!! #SaveThePlanet #GoElectric #GoGreen
Those fools who "protest" oil are paid to do that. It's their job. They'll have a day of reckoning but won't look at the future.
No prescription medication too. ;)
Such a great video.
The vehicles that digs up the minerals for the solar, wind and electric vehicles needs oil. So take that away and nothing can be created.
34-year-old ‘scholar-activist’ allegedly behind UC Berkeley firebombs charged with felony arson
JJUNE 21, 2024
The 34-year-old self-described “scholar-activist” allegedly behind firebomb incidents at UC Berkeley, purportedly in support of pro-Palestinian protests, has been charged with felony arson.
Casey Goonan was charged by the Alameda County district attorney at his pretrial hearing Thursday, his lawyer Jeff Wozniak told the Daily Californian student newspaper, adding July 2 is the date for a plea entry hearing, calling the charges a “politically motivated prosecution.”
Charging documents posted online show the suspect faces a total of seven counts for various allegations.
Goonan, who earned a doctorate in African American studies from Northwestern University two years ago, is accused of trying to blow up a police car and set fire to various UC Berkeley buildings on several occasions since June 1. ^^^ source, COLLEGE FIX
Life without oil means turning the clock back to 1799. In every single sense: high child mortality (hospitals as we know them would cease to exist), world wide malnutrition (because over 90% of fertilisers are fossil fuel provisioned), almost zero personal hygiene products, (which 100% reliant on fossil fuels), no mechanical transport. And worldwide energy poverty. Since over 90% of world wide energy use is fossil fuel based.
As I said, without fossil fuel, life would be EXACTLY like it was in 1799! If you don't want that, stop voting for political parties that do. And understand that those parties are either ignorant of the outcomes ending fossil fuel brings or know and are lying about it. Either way - they deserve no support.
Agreed. The climate zealots want to take us back to a time of innocence and purity that never existed.
Luckily, someone in Australia discovered a way to recycle soft plastic into crude oil. Either that or we'd run out in about 70 years.
"Get the dog"!!!
That dog is running back to the wild so that it can survive.
That's nice very nice indeed but somehow Life without OIL or Gasolines are okay.. and the solution is LNG .. here in Dallas TX USA The present public transportation is based on LNG and natural gas.. so what's the big deal about it.. the oil industry will be here with us forever.. and from the chemical process is easy to manufacturing gas natural and nobody else can do anything else about it..😮😅😮😅
Far more things in this video would disappear than they showed you.BTW,California,how much again was a Kwh of electricity?Thanks to expensive,unreliable,intermittent,inefficient renewables and EV's everywhere there draining the grid.Good luck!Yer gonna need it!
Oil is the blood of the Earth, and highly renewable. It's the truth.
But is it renewable fast enough?
@@anthonymorris5084 great question! I dunno about that one!
If the anti gas and oil people were truly committed to their cause, they would not use anything made with coal, gas and oil or made with equipment that uses coal, gas and oil.
WOW sanity.
Oil, we don't need no sticking oil. Just look at the caveman, he didn't have no sticking oil and he thrived just fine.
Q: What did Californians use for light before candles?
A: Electricity!
Problem is we simply burn almost all of it rather than producing goods and structures like this ad suggests. If oil was used primarily to produce products instead of just burning it this ad would be largely moot for hundreds of more years. We needed to solve the oil dependancy for transport and heating problems first before anything else, which largely just burns it all.
There are only certain products that can be produced from oil. Fuel used to be a waste byproduct that was dumped into rivers and oceans.
Why aren't the conservative groups along with the Petroleum Companies creating showing more videos like this? These types of videos should also be mandatory in every school and University funded by taxpayers.
Portugal ran 6 days straight without it as a test.
How did that go?
They had no electricity, indoor plumbing, and electronics? Those are all petroleum based products
Bought to you by big oil.
Just like your phone, computer, indoor plumbing, electricity, electronics, hospital equipment, food...all made from petroleum based products bought to you by big oil. If you want to boycott big oil, then boycott all those products.
This video should be required watching for every leftist in the country
1800s everyone on a bike, that'd what they want
He still could've BBQ'd but he'd have to use charcoal briquets & wood---the old fashioned way.
Oh, no, burning wood and charcoal? More pollutants in the air.
Charcoal makes "too much CO2! And SMOKE!!!"
Since California and liberals hate oil so much why don't petroleum truckers stop delivering oil to California?
The only transition is to inevitable simplicity
why were they still wearing clothes and shoes. what a crap add
Most of that plastic junk has no place in my life. Petroleum products have useful properties but Tupperware and margarine are not among them.
That plastic junk also goes into every electronic device in the world. They're called printed circuit boards. How many car parts are made from plastic? How about glasses? All those IV tubes at medical facilities? It takes a lot more energy to melt sand into glass than it takes to produce plastic containers.
@@safeandeffectivelol As I said “most “. There are certainly a lot of things made of plastic from petroleum that are beneficial and worth the effort to recycle. I prefer glass or stainless steel for food storage because they feel clean when you wash them.
The initial energy cost is not insignificant but repeated use likely mitigates that some. Solar power will soon be so cheap that we will be able to rethink our industrial processes. I am too old to see some of the changes I anticipate but enjoy the discussion about them.
Thanks for your input!
There should be some efficient way of using Fossil Fuel.
I don't want my whole body to be burning hot just to make money for you.
Then work at being more efficient, and make your contribution to the world.
Stop using computers and phones. The printed circuit bards are petroleum based products. Stop using plastic garbage bags. Stop flying on airplanes since we have no battery-powered airplanes. Stop using products shipped to your country, since we don't have freight ships that run on batteries.
While I agree with moving away from Oil and fossil fuels as an energy resource, I've been telling people for years that we can't just stop cold turkey. A transition needs to begin, and we still have to do much infrastructure planning and alternative energy research before we can fully start to rely on them, and maybe even then, Oil will still be used for many other things.
Although some sanity is required to address a situation, humans have survived without oil based products. We have become reliant on them and could either look to our past consider adapting out present or be innovative towards new ideas. Change is constant... its HOW we address thinfs without destroying freedoms, society and progress.
Change won't happen without profit to those who produce. The alternatives require too much oil and gas to produce and have their own environmental concerns such as lithium mining for batteries that are costly to replace.
Every advance since the 1800's is because petroleum based products. Fertilizers, indoor plumbing, electricity, airplanes, powered ships instead of sailboats, insulation, indoor cooking without using wood or coal, heating and air conditioning, electronics such as computers and phones, modern medical devices, IV tubes, syringes
Are you willing to give all of those up and survive without oil based products? You can live in a cabin or stone house and use an outhouse. You can ride a horse and buggy since there will be no electrical wiring or rubber tires for your EV. You can rely on subsistence farmers since food can't be refrigerated or frozen to be shipping or stored.
@@safeandeffectivelol (Assumption on my part as to your reply's meaning) I never said eliminate them but consider options "...without destroying freedoms, society and progress". (Second Assumption on my part) It seems that the situation is being considered in either this or that approach when we have, as you rightly point out, created advances as we have adapted. Some would say eliminate all oil based transport. Why? Why not advance it means to deliver the end result more efficiently and effectively while at the same time advance other technologies? Edit: I would agree with many advances but could not agree withe the use of the assertion every, though.
Aera Energy LLC... you guys must quit being so logical :D!
Ah yes, maintaining that quality of life...
As you sit indoors and type this.
@@cd3949 True. As long as it is available I will use it just like everybody else does. However, be advised that all of my grid supplied power comes from windmills and solar panels. We have that kind of choice of energy supplier in Pennsylvania. It costs a bit more, but it is worth it for the peace of mind knowing that I've minimized my contribution to the problems.
Quality of life since 1900 with indoor plumbing and electricity
A simplistic rationale aimed at a technically illiterate audience...
You can reduce use of oil and gas, but you can't eliminate it.
The population would go from 8 billion to 500 million within a decade.
You say that like it's a bad thing.
Okay, but sooner or later it's going to run out anyway and long before that it will become economically unviable. It's the most basic economic concept. So get planning for it and make the transition as painless as possible while there's still time.
The search for new energy should be a never ending process, but it should be pursued with the free market, not bureaucrats, subsidies and mandates. Profits ensure good ideas succeed. Subsidies ensure bad ideas are adopted.
Painless is not what the government has in mind. They are trying to force everyone to go electric when the grid can't handle what we already have. I can't afford to buy all new appliances or an electric vehicle and I'm not going to ride a bicycle. Public transportation is limited or non-existent in many areas of the country.
The world didn't end when we stopped using whale oil. The chicken littles have been saying the world would run out of oil since 1920. Meanwhile the population has increased 10x 100 years later and there is still plenty of oil.
Big oil propaganda! Oh, we MUST save oil! We will
Have no fun and be destitute without oil! We aren’t talking about suddenly ending oil, we are talking about a phase out where it is not needed.
There are numerous active groups demanding the immediate end of all fossil fuels. They are even litigating governments through the courts. There is nothing today that can replace fossil fuels, in fact fossil fuel demand is still growing.
These things have happened historically by consumer demand and the ability of the producers and financial sector to make profit. If enough people started buying the right products it could help, but too many things actually require oil and gas to produce even the right products for people to buy. It's a cycle that's not likely to have significant change or benefit.
@@Eye_Witness we did fine before oil. We can drink again from metal and use wood containers etc
@@Eye_Witness *"If enough people started buying the right products"* And exactly how do you define "the right products"? The market successfully decides what is "the right products" and a profit is the reward for successfully providing the products that people want, need and demand. Creating products that nobody wants and no profit is realized.
@@chrismd00 I can assure you nobody "did fine" before oil. The history of humanity is a story of suffering and impoverishment. Prior to fossil fuels people suffered from malnutrition, starved to death and died from treatable disease. They worked from sun up until sun down. Poverty was the norm.
The advent of coal created the industrial revolution and the discovery of oil sent GDP, human longevity, nutrition and quality of life to unprecedented heights at unprecedented speed. This is all well documented.
With oil being this important...why do we insist in freely burning it up to propel out transportation when there are alternatives...
Do some research on refining oil. Fuel is a byproduct. You can burn it for energy or dump it in rivers and oceans like they used to do
And yet... We lived for centuries without the degree of oil we consume. C'mon. Be smarter than this.
Engineers love a good challenge. They also understand that nothing is without compromise or binary. This presentation leans binary. Hard.
Centuries of chopping wood, digging for water, riding a horse or walking for miles. Most of us live in the real world with rationale and common sense. Compromise these days means being compliant to an ever encroaching government that has no actual concern for what people can tolerate or afford.
Centuries of living in stone or log homes with no electricity, computers, phones, air conditioning, refrigeration.
Every technological advance in the past 125 years is due to petroleum.
@@safeandeffectivelol "Why comfort is crippling you"
All this video shows is that A: We can't cut off oil immediately without serious ramifications; and B: The world currently relies on natural gas for a lot of things.
The world does not have infinite oil, and the supply is very low in many countries. Less access to oil in your own country means more spending on importing it from foreign countries. Look at the war in Afghanistan, nearly 200,000 deaths because of a conflict largely elicited by oil.
What we need to do, in order to preserve the use of oil in SOME instances, is to eliminate the major uses in areas that we CAN efficiently remove them. EVs outperform gas vehicles in every measure. Electronic equipment and tools do as well. Gas barbeques are already outdates, a lot of people use electric barbeques, oven/stovetops, many tools are electric because it's more efficient, safer for users, and being better for the environment is just an added bonus. I'm not sure how the apparel industry couldn't exist without oil. Perhaps the equipment used to make the clothes are petro-based, but that doesn't mean they can't be replaced over time with more efficient electric-powered machinery.
The idea that we need oil because we currently use it is completely baseless and irrelevant. Yes we do use oil, that is why we are trying to transition out of it. It's common sense, really. We can't survive on oil forever, it will disappear. We need to ease the transition out of oil use so that when we do run out, it's not a global catastrophe for half of the industries. We NEED to use renewable energy, because it is our only source of energy that will not run out. With all the information and facts out there today, I can't comprehend how people can justify not knowing how close we actually are to running out of oil. It may not happen in the next 20 years, but it's happening extremely fast.
"EVs outperform gas vehicles in every measure". 🤣 You sure about that? I have a buddy with a $100000 GM EV pickup truck and he gets pretty scared when asked to say, haul a boat out to the lake (he's already been stranded in the middle of nowhere a couple times when he ran out of juice on the prairies despite spending hours "refilling" at a couple places along the way). Also, EVs pollute more ultimately than gas vehicles, and are terrible here in the prairie winter. In addition to the added pollution from tires and break pads due to the weight, EVs are still ultimately powered by oil and gas in most places. Just because you can't see it coming out of your car, it's still true. And when it comes to safety, EVs are actually less safe (bombs on wheels) compared to gas vehicles. A fire in an EV caused by the battery is actually far more dangerous than the much more rare fire in a gas car.
Not sure what Afghanistan has to do with oil. You could maybe make that argument for Iraq.
There is little to no oil in Afghanistan
They told us the world would run out of oil in 1920. Over 100 years later there is still plenty of oil as the population has increased 10x
We will always need oil. Every printed circuit board that is needed for every electronic device is a petroleum based product. No more computers, phones, internet, etc
No more PVC pipes for indoor plumbing. No more rubber for tires. No more asphalt for roads. No more fuel for planes and freight ships. No more fertilizers from N2. No more medical devices or IV tubes or syringes. No more rubber insulation for electrical wires that prevent electrocution and fires.
Yeah but try and explain this to those brain dead protestors.
Good luck applying those fake faces.
This could have been done better, really. There's no arguing that petroleum products are necessary but a lot of the ones you referenced really aren't. Footballs used to be made of pig skin and could be again. There are plenty of leather dog leashes. Wooden picnic tables exist. Charcoal grills and wood smokers are readily available, everywhere. Coolers used to be made of metal.
There are plenty of good arguments for oil/gas. "But muh cheap, plastic crap!" is not one of them.
I guess you haven't noticed how expensive leather goods are. Probably not enough pigs to make all the footballs purchased each year. Charcoal grills and wood smokers? I thought we were talking about environmentalism. Metal coolers? The metal industry requires equipment that uses immense heat to produce and electrical is not a viable alternative. The cost of EVERYTHING would go sky high and most people would be living in abject poverty because of it. It's already getting there for me. It would take decades, maybe a century to get anywhere near we need to be if done at a reasonable rate, starting with improving and expanding the electrical grid first which is currently powered by mainly by coal and hydro.
@@Eye_Witness Who is talking about environmentalism? This video is talking about life without oil. I was pointing out how poorly thought out the whole "You just won't have anything" approach is. Now you're here crying about environmentalism and things like your ignorance of the number of pigs slaughtered every year. Are you serious? You think it would be so hard for us, in modern times, to go _back_to manufacturing things without plastic? We did it for generatioms, yet somehow, we're just too smart to pull it off now, I guess. Such a ridiculous take.
@@TheCharleseye The entire point of doing without oil is environmental. What other reason could there be? If it was only about health concerns, people could be allowed to have the choice. Instead, those that are crying the loudest are concerned for the environment. How old are you, twelve?
To live without the necessity of fossil fuels would put us back 200 years or more. You cannot have the "modern times" without the modern tools and equipment needed to sustain the alternatives needed in manufacturing, medicine, science and literally everything that is needed today.
What do you know about how many pigs are slaughtered or how many would need to be? I live in an area where there are many pork producers and mass production as you would need is unfathomable and not environmentally sound.
You can't produce enough electricity without coal and there is no alternative known to replace it. Electric airplanes? that's a joke when the electric cars are failing and you can't pull an airplane to the side of the road when it fails.
The generations without plastic were not what you seem to think, but it's not just about plastic. I don't like plastic. But oil is a requirement in any age that needs to produce the raw materials needed for our survival.
If you want to live like the Amish, go for it, but even they use things made from oil.
How many tens of millions of trees will need to be cut down to replace everything plastic with wood or paper? Each tree absorbs an average or 40 pounds of CO2 per year and turns it into oxygen.
Using charcoal and wood to cook produces CO, which is much more of a pollutant than CO2. The CO2 is removed by plants. CO is smog and causes acid rain.
Making metal coolers requires mining, transporting, and smelting ore. That uses a lot more energy.
@@safeandeffectivelol Am I supposed to care? We need the resources we need. I'm not in on all of this nonsense of pretending any side of this has our best interests at heart. I see BS and I call it out. Then, some chronically online weirdos come out of the woodwork to try to nitpick with the typical _"Well, akshually"_ stuff.
Get off your knees. None of these companies care about you, so why swallow their...narrative?
Insidious PROPAGANDA?? Nice!! 👍 😊 😁 🤦♂️
All the things mentioned are easily replaced by products without oil but are somewhat more expensive maybe.
"Easily replaced"? If this were true it would be happening. We used to hunt whales, almost to extinction so we could have lanterns and soaps. We hunted turtles almost to extinction to make stuff from their shells. There is no way you could replace fossil fuels with other materials. It would decimate what ever it is you chose to replace it with.
@@anthonymorris5084 In this video i did not see any products that used to come from whales or turtles before it was replaced by oil products. Mention a few of these products instead of of being so overly dramatic
@@vandaahll "In this video" they didn't list any products that could replace fossil fuels. It is you who are making the claim. But more importantly it begs the question, why is there any need to replace fossil fuel products? This is the myopia that stems from climate zealotry determined to demonize petroleum.
@@anthonymorris5084 Will not respond to the bs part of your statement. I do not agree with both sides.. 1 side says plastic and other petroleum products are harmless and the other side says it is very bad... both sides are wrong. I am just interested and amused in how people are making all this mental gymnastics to "prove' their side is the right one.
@@vandaahll Calling BS and not backing up the argument is tantrum throwing. What have I stated that's BS? That's a pretty vulgar accusation.
Who said these products were "harmless"? Humanity exploits nature to generate human flourishing. There is always a price to pay. The "other side" is trying to prevent these products from being created in some misguided view that states we're "destroying the planet".
Petroleum products create pharmaceuticals, fire retardants, fertilizers, plastics and inexpensive reliable energy. This has saved and enhanced billions of lives and given humanity unprecedented standards of living. Data proves that humanity has never been safer, healthier or more prosperous than at any time in history, by any measurement you care to examine. If you truly want to see a Mad Max world, end fossil fuels.
Should’ve also deleted the kids too……unlikely they would’ve been born.
I'm sure, you cannot afford all the nice things without Oil etc. So no kids as the cost of living would be too high.
People have kids in third world countries. So the kids could still be alive. Not any hospitals, hospitals supplies
@@williammills5597 Most of us wouldn't be here at all
So why don't we have nuclear plants everywhere? considering the waste bi-product is less than 10 barrels a year??????????? Please EXPLAIN!!!!!
The Leftist environmental zealots are against nuclear. Why? Because it works. Their goal is to end capitalism and destroy the Western world which they openly despise. What better way to achieve this than to end inexpensive reliable energy, the lifeblood of industrialization and Western power and prosperity. These folks want wind and solar, because they don't work.
