I've felt that the oil magnates have missed it all along. For some years now they could have been investing in clean energy and become the magnates of clean energy, still rich and powerful, but so what, they wouldn't be polluting the world.
But no, they couldn't see that, they had to stick with dirty energy.
Pretty short term thinking.

@stargazersmith@social.linux.pizza @saltywizard@beige.party Alternative energy doesn't make rich people richer, and alternative energy doesn't win wars. We might have a green utopia someday, but there will NEVER be a green empire. War is powered by oil, and that is why oil still matters.
