Anyone intentionally investing in fossil fuels today is delusional. These companies should have died years ago, but they've managed to delay the inevitable by lobbying to delay action and protect their massive subsidies.

Tesla has shown electric cars can be superior to gas cars in all but one metric (road trips) and they're closing in on that. Wind and solar are now cheaper than coal and in some markets cheaper than natural gas. At peak times electricity from renewables is so cheap its creating a gold rush to develop low cost energy storage to soak up all the dirt cheap electricity that's being produced.

Theres also companies who can produce synthetic liquid fuels with co2 from direct air capture using renewable energy. With a decent carbon tax they could compete directly with fossil fuel companies but eventually renewable energy should be cheap enough that they won't even need a carbon tax.

Fossil fuel companies are as good as dead. They just dont know it yet.
