The state has no plans to replace the oil derivatives that are the basis of more than 6,000 products and fuels for our various transportation infrastructures that support the 8 billion on this planet.

Renewables cannot manufacture any of the products that come from oil, which are supporting eight billion now on this planet.

Maybe Newsom will produce a plan in the next four years to finance the billions of dollars for the roads being used by EV’s or just pass that problem on to his predecessor.

Newsom does not breath any air that emanates outside of California. So, just to clean up his “bubble” of the California air that he breathes, Newsom continues to increase the costs of electricity and fuels for the voters that defeated the recall election in 2021.

Well intended passions for lower emissions may be contributing to the downfall of today’s society and the products that supports the eight billion on earth.

Zero emissions at ANY COST seems to be the direction being mandated by governments and the Environmental, Social and Governance movements around the world, to divest in fossil fuels.

The wealthy countries that have chosen to go “green” have the highest cost of gasoline and electricity.

We know what the decarbonized world of the 1800’s was like, so how about proving the new parachute, i.e., the replacement for crude oil, works before we jump out of the plane?

EV automobiles need a reliable and cost-effective supply chain of lithium for the batteries, and a method to transport them to America safely and cost effectively.

With worldwide refinery closures outpacing new construction, shortages and inflation are likely to be the new norm that inflicts regressive expenses upon those that can least afford it, as control of the worldwide refining industry shifts to Asia and Europe.

Before your next vehicle purchase, be knowledgeable that most of the exotic minerals and metals to build EV batteries are being mined in developing countries.

Efforts to cease the use of crude oil could be the greatest threat to civilization’s eight billion people.

America’s unabated movement toward electricity from breezes and sunshine have transferred the countries’ energy demands onto foreign countries.
