No more fertilizer and no more plastic and not enough energy to power the factories or mine the minerals to replace all that plastic with metal and wood.

“...upwards of 80 percent of the global supply of sulfur comes from the desulfurization of fossil fuels...”

In the US the oil refining process made it uneconomical to mine sulfur so all of our sulfur mines had gone out of business by 2000.

About thirty years ago the head of the chemistry department at the University of Calgary gave a presentation to a group of oil refining engineers.

He said that without the sulfur biproduct from the oil and gas industry used in fertilizers at that time the world would have been able to support only 2 billion people and not the then-population of seven or so billion.

The green plan is really the build back better initiative where they put forward promote and execute technology they know doesn’t work in order to collapse the existing and start over where they are in complete control
