I do lose money on this. I (and you, and the rest of the world) have to both clean up emissions and pay for climate change. The more we emit the worse the effects.

Right, but that negative externality is on emissions. For emissions it doesn't really matter who is producing the oil.
Or we could invest in renewables. Renewables get cheaper than oil when you do that. Then nobody produces oil.
