I’m well aware that oil is a fossil fuel, my point is that it’s just ONE of the fossil fuels.
Using statistics that encompass ALL the fossil fuel figures when we’re only discussing ONE of them, oil, is worthless.
The figures you posted include oil, coal, natural gas, etc. and as a result are worthless in a discussion that is focused on only oil.
As for correcting my “mistakes”, are you even reading the financial publications surrounding the big oil companies? Are you even aware that nearly every quarter they are posting record profits?

Roughly 7% profit for oil companies vs. 15% profit for Apple. Who’s making record profits?
What you don’t seem to understand is that oil companies are HUGE. 7% of a huge number is a huge number! You need to normalize the numbers to do any real comparisons.
