Why?

>50% of oil is extracted by oil states like KSA and Russia which aren't going to do that.

You're just going to become more reliant on oil states.

You need to fund realistic alternatives first (which we are doing).

Rome wasn't built in a day. But we're moving in the right direction almost as fast as possible.

It probably took 10-20 years too long to get started moving in the right direction, but we are - solidly - now.

You can tax imports FYI

You can then watch coup d'état of governments through whole Western world as their population will struggle to feed themselves.

Taxing imports causes mass famine? That sounds bad! I wonder if there is a level of tariffs and such where the post you replied to could be effective without accidentally making everyone starve and overthrow their government. Do you have any info about the tipping point there?

Taxing fossil fuel imports in agriculture based on fossil fuels will make food expensive and cause riots. No reason to play a dummy.

They're not playing.
