Net Zero zealots forget that 6,000 products are made from crude oil, including equipment needed for their “green” agenda; so, here’s a reminder

Net Zero policymakers the world over appear to be unaware that electricity is generated after oil and that renewables only produce (unreliable) electricity, not the products and fuels needed to support the world’s population. So, Ronald St

We have tagged this article as propaganda as it imposes a serious spin on the topic.
If not more explanation provided, this article is included as propaganda because it shows clear manufacture from a government controlled dialectic, where a topic is misdirected by some actors in order to mislead people during early stages of a narrative.

Everything that needs electricity, including iPhones and computers, is made with petrochemicals manufactured from crude oil, coal or natural gas.

Even the “green” agenda needs hydrocarbons. All electric vehicles (“EVs”), solar panels and wind turbines are built with products, components and equipment made from crude oil derivatives.

Getting rid of crude oil would eliminate electricity, the more than 6,000 products in demand by hospitals, airports, communications, transport and the 8 billion people on this planet.

Net Zero Policymakers Remain Oblivious That Electricity Came After Oil

By Ronald Stein, 14 April 2025

Lifestyles are driven by the materialistic and transportation fuel demands of society, which so-called wind and solar energy are incapable of fulfilling.

All the climate change alarmists blame emissions from fossil fuels. Still, they have yet to identify a backup plan for “something” to support the demand for products and fuels of current lifestyles in wealthier countries and developing economies.

Today, “Net Zero” policymakers setting “green” policies are oblivious to the reality that so-called “renewables” ONLY generate electricity but CANNOT make anything. In addition, everything that needs electricity, like iPhones and computers, is made with petrochemicals manufactured from crude oil, coal or natural gas.

Electricity came AFTER oil, as ALL electrical generation methods from hydro, coal, natural gas, nuclear, wind and solar are built with the products, components and equipment that are made from oil derivatives manufactured from crude oil,
All EVs, solar panels and wind turbines are also built with products, components and equipment made from crude oil derivatives.
All transportation fuels for cars, trucks, merchant ships, aircraft and military are manufactured from raw crude oil.
Getting rid of crude oil would eliminate electricity, and the more than 6,000 products in demand by hospitals, airports, communications and the 8 billion people on this planet. And it would paralyse virtually all transportation!

The ruling class in wealthy countries is not cognisant that the planet’s population has increased from 1 to 8 billion after oil over the last 200 years.

Lifestyles before the 1800s were drastically different, as the world did NOT have any of the following infrastructures, which were all made from products and components made from oil derivatives manufactured from raw crude oil:

Transportation
Hospitals
Medical equipment
Appliances
Electronics
Telecommunications
Communications systems
Space programs
Heating and ventilating
Military

In addition, all the above infrastructures need electricity, the same electricity that is based upon wire, insulation, etc., which are made from the same oil derivatives manufactured from raw crude oil.

Today, we have more than 50,000 merchant ships, more than 20,000 commercial aircraft and more than 50,000 military aircraft that use fuels manufactured from crude oil. The fuels to move the heavy-weight and long-range needs of jets moving people and products, and the merchant ships for global trade flows, and the military and space programmes are also dependent on what can be manufactured from crude oil.

We’ve had more than 200 years to “clone” oil to support the supply chain of products demanded by society and have been unsuccessful.

Most likely, 80% of the 8 billion people on this planet living on less than $10 per day would like to live the materialistic lifestyles of those in wealthier developed countries.

Today, wealthier countries HAVE ALL of the ABOVE infrastructures and have greater longevity than the other 80% of people on planet Earth.

Yet, Net Zero policymakers around the world remain oblivious that Electricity came AFTER oil. Today, Net Zero and decarbonisation pledges are a dime a dozen:

The Australian Public Service has targeted Net Zero by 2030.
The German government has a target of Net Zero emissions by 2045.
California has an aggressive decarbonisation scheme. It is committed to a “just and equitable transition to carbon neutrality by 2045.”
The UK’s Net Zero target is 2050.
Canada plans to hit Net Zero by 2050.
EU, Japan and South Korea are targeting Net Zero by 2050.
The Biden administration – remember them? – pledged that the US would achieve Net Zero no later than 2050.
India is targeting Net Zero by 2070.
China claims it will hit Net Zero “before 2060.”
According to the Clean Energy States Alliance, 24 states, Puerto Rico and the District of Columbia have “100% clean energy goals.”

Shockingly, all the above worldwide Net Zero policies to rid the use of fossil fuels would eliminate electricity and the more than 6,000 products supporting the 8 billion on this planet, and ground all transportation dependent on the fuels made from crude oil!

There’s a huge and growing gap between these worldwide decarbonisation pledges and the ever-increasing global demand for products and fuels from hydrocarbons.

According to the International Energy Agency’s Global Energy Review, hydrocarbon growth exceeded the growth in renewables last year. The report also shows that oil, natural gas and coal provide more than five times as much primary electricity to the global economy as the political darlings of the moment, those so-called renewables

According to the IEA, oil consumption and natural gas continue to increase. While oil and gas are pivotal fuels, the global climate story continues to be defined by coal. Last year, global coal use increased, as did power generation from coal plants. The IEA’s reports show that soaring coal use and electricity demand in China (population: 1.4 billion) and India (population: 1.4 billion) are swamping all the climate policies and decarbonisation efforts in the US, Canada, Europe, Japan and South Korea.

Before the decarbonisation pledges go into effect and significantly reduces the availability of the products and fuels made from oil that are supporting the humanity on Earth, all the worlds’ Net Zero plans NEED to be amended to identify the “replacement” to fossil fuels that can support the growing materialistic demands and the increasing demand for transportation fuels for the 8 billion people on this planet.
