You don't get it.
I do, you don't think about anything and instead just cling to the same old BS.
Oil is a blanket term.
Yes, and oil used for fuel is different to other oils, like vegetable oil and fish oil.
You could defund big oil by creating fish hatcheries all along the country.
No, you can't.
This just demonstrates that you do not understand the scale of the problem and the scale of what you are talking about.
The US alone went through 822.7 million tons of oil in 2022. That equates to roughly 2.25 million tons per day.
Sardines are perhaps the best fish for fish oil, having roughly 2 g per 85 g serving.
That means just for the US alone, you would need to produce almost 100 million tonnes of sardines each, just to extract the fish oil.
And to put that into perspective, the global production of sardines is roughly 4 million tonnes per year.
So you need roughly 25 years worth of sardines per day.
And that oil doesn't actually come from the fish, but its diet.
And fish are known for accumulation of toxic heavy metals, like lead and mercury.
You would be better off growing flaxseed. But even then you still need several million ton per day.
You have a failure of imagination. Instead of thinking what could be, you accept others' bad solution.
Quite the opposite.
I have a realistic imagination, which also includes thinking about the options rather than just pretending everything will work.
You instead come up with a crap idea, and don't think about it at all.
You know what actually happens when we switch to solar and wind?
We start talking about all the deaths caused by fossil fuels?
Also, how come you seem to care about bird deaths, but want to farm fish for oil?
It's power outages
Only if done poorly.
For example, notice how you just say solar and wind, as if they are the only options.
What about hydroelectric? Including pumped hydroelectric for energy stoage?
not only is there an ugly eyesore for me
I don't care if you don't like the look.
Do you think people would like the look of your fish farms all over the place?
Do you think people like the look of fossil fuel based power plants?
When Biden backed EVs, the price of oil nearly doubled.
Sure, it had nothing at all to do with Russia.
Big pharma are liars. So are big oil. But you know what? If you read history, you'd discover they are one in the same.
You mean capitalists that you love to support?
not a bunch of refineries trying to use excess oil (the price rises, because of artificial scarcity).
And this just shows more ignorance on your part.
The pharmaceuticals produced by oil are the big money makers, with fuel oil being much cheaper.
If we did trash-to-fuel practice of burning all plastic found in the ocean
You would relatively quickly go through the plastic and still need oil.
Remember, those plastics come from oil.
I've told you this before, and you just accuse me of being pro-big oil.
And I explained the issues with it.
You are literally telling to us burn oil, in the form of plastic.
If you keep that up, you keep burning oil.
Again, posting a crappy picture of your love of big oil meaning you want to keep fossil fuel based power plants running to pretend EVs need to use them and just push the problem just shows your dishonesty.
