Ok FULL STOP.
The current levels of CO2 is 450ppm which is close to a geologic nadir. There is no "problem". I will not finish this BS article because the basic supposition and foundational idea of this peioce is flawed.
There is indeed no problem.
Hydro- and -carbon are elemental geologic and fully naturally occuring. Under pressure as with the formation of different forms of minerals in rock, hydrocarbons are created. Fossils are NOT involved, except in the myth.
A small but salient point. Fossils are themselves preserved forms in rock in various strata. They are not found as fluid to be extracted. Changing the vocabulary changes everything, as with the game which was once global cooling, then warming and then climate change but oddly still WARMING. The average Joe is swayed by storytelling. Stories then are not only entertainments and lessons, but also cons and weapons.
Without "fossil" in the phrase, fossils fuels, and with "models" being so often wrong, clear-eyed storytelling tells that we find continually more petroleum, a continuing and renewable resource from earth processes. The "fossil fuel" and "climate change" (which changes naturally) are words games for the rubes, that the socialists use to empty people's wallets. For the "greater good."
And hydrogen will just magically electrolyze from water and condense itself enough to liquify for easy storage. If some entrepreneur can figure it our great. But until then petroleum is the ONLY way to power the world economy.
