Yeah, that is another story and I do not think it will be about the economies of states.

Re: fossil fuels running out

So when will we be running out? Cool question, huh.

Climate change is a useless concept coz most people aren't fit to begin with, they can't clamor for balance in the world if they can't balance their own body,

For me, it's as condescending as hypocritical, trying to gain recognition from superficial subject matters that we can never really control or even that we have something to do with it

Bro b_9904, based on your position, should we feel less or no guilt at all in contributing to pollution in using our ICE driven machines? I feel somehow responsible but choose to look the other way around as I enjoy the convenience of it. Not picking an argument here but merely satisfying my interest.[emoji6]

Pollution is a different issue from climate change.

Pollution affects the livability of an area, like garbage stinking up your house, or smoke from a factory affecting health.

Climate change affects, well the climate. Like increased average annual temperature for both day time and night time.

Hence, we should control pollution to livable levels. But, can we control the global climate? That is an issue science needs to answer before we start buying expensive and unreliable non fossil fueled powerhouses.
