30. They can deny it all they like

Whether we move away from fossil fuels or not, fossil fuels are moving away from us. There's only so much in the Earth. Why do you think they're going for those awful tar sands. The good old crude is running out. What's crucial is how much more damage we do to the planet before we take the oil giants down (IF!) Sooner or later they'll run out of the fossil fuels they're making so much money on. They're trying to bleed as much out of the Earth as they can while it lasts, and be damned how much damage they do.
