The principle of stopping our use of oil is a correct one, their tactics are not........ I mean, what are we supposed to do next week if we just stop?

Even the originator of the movement in the US is beginning to recognise tactics are turning people against them, and hence their message.

 

Add the problem of Thermal Runaway of EV batteries as witnessed by the destruction in the last week of "Freemantle Highway" in the North Sea and the complete burning down of a home (est. USD1m) in the US when an electric MB was parked, not charging, in the garage, highlights that change for change's sake is equally dangerous. Add in the mining of Nickel, Cadmium and other heavy metals to make (unstable) batteries then just stopping oil, right now, causes more damage than it solved.

With these guys in the UK, given their current contribution to worldwide pollution is less than 1%, their tactic of stopping traffic actually just makes matters worse.

Bring on Nuclear Fusion and Green Hydrogen.

Hope they succeed in their countries. Less demand means cheaper oil for us!

I agree with Piers Morgan. It will not win any support by disrupting traffic flow. It will only irritate people. It's chaos that does nothing to stop the oil flow. The amdk mindset is undeniably there.

Is there an effective alternative to oil now that will not disrupt our life? Then the next more crucial question will be, did we use oil for the right things or we are wasting it like no tomorrow? If we list down what oil are being used today and then strike off what are unnecessary, probably the unnecessary list will be much longer. 😆

Wonder who's financing them. Their banners, vests, superglue are water-based? Idling vehicles very environment-friendly? Why no such blockades of oil company HQs and offices?

I will be the Dr evil here. The solution is the drastic decrease in world population. Too many humans that natural life cycle of all living cannot sustain.
