  1. Humans could band together into small groups of hunter gatherers and go after the fossil fuel infrastructure.

  2. They disprove themsleves when they say that humans have an instinct to move away from tactics that are harmful to us.

    It’s almost like it’s the inequality of capitalism that is preventing us from transitioning away from oil and not human instinct? Oligarchs will literally blame human nature before their own narcissism.

  3. CO2 emissions have gone in one direction since I first studied the problem in college in the late ‘80’s. It’s never been a technical problem – but a collective action problem for which humans have proven themselves wholly unprepared.
