Not only that, it's likely impossible.

People vastly underestimate the portable chemical energy contained in 10's of millions years of sunlight striking the entire surface of Earth and a fraction of it being saved in an extractable liquid/gaseous form underground.

There is no replacement for this energy bounty, not with 8B people to sustain.

Not even close.

It's easy to claim it's all a conspiracy by Big Petroleum. And to some extent ... it is. But the physics of our existence don't really allow for an alternative. We needed to start like 50 years ago. It's too late now.
