All power generating plants that use oil and gas to supply electricity to the state of Colorado should power down their plants, and put in ad in all of the Colorado newspapers for tomorrow (since very few will have power to turn on their TV's) and state that as of now, they will no longer be using such 'dirty' fuels to keep the lights on.
I want to see the giant crying moaning shitstorm of humanity that will make its way toward the power plants to beg them to start up the juice again.
Pain is the ultimate motivator. No one takes their hand off of a hot stove because it tickles. They do it because it hurts. Make these stupid decisions hurt.
Oil is almost never used to generate electric power. When it is, it is usually refinery “leftovers”, residual oil or petroleum coke. The heavies left after fuels like gasoline and diesel are removed.
