Maybe it’s time for a reasoned discussion on fossil fuel. There’s pros and cons to both sides of continuing to drill. But can we agree on one thing:
We aren’t stopping the use of oil this afternoon. Or tomorrow. Or even by the weekend.
Calls to “end all fossil fuel immediately” are just plain silly. There, we said it. The figurative and literal wheels of the world’s society and economy are built on oil, for better or worse. If we want to change, we have to keep the status quo going, while making the change.
For instance, at Encore Green Environmental we have a way to make fossil fuel production better for the environment.
You want to know who opposes us the most? Environmentalists who want to keep fossil fuel “bad” to keep up the pressure to shut down oil right now, today.
Now, not everyone who cares about the planet feels that way. But we’re always shocked when we hear it.
Yes, we break the narrative of what some feel should be happening with our energy.
Yes, we have done something you weren’t expecting.
Yes, it helps both the environment AND the oil company.
But since we now CAN make oil production better for the environment, why shouldn’t you support it?
Unless, of course, you value your agenda more than the environment.
That’s how we see it. How do you see it?
