    The world and particularly the west desperately need to address their oil addiction. Business as usual is no longer acceptable.

      Higher oil prices are motivating people to move away from oil, hopefully toward electrification & renewables. Or at the very least, motivating people to lower their fuel consumption.

        How much of a reduction has this caused? Is it even measurable? I’m talking about a much more systematic change. A dramatic departure from cars as the primary mode of transit and electrification of any remaining transport is what’s needed. As well as a phasing out of oil in the chemical industry.
