I think it's been pretty much established with the extent of temperature data that we have that were our emissions controlled we wouldn't be seeing global warming on the particular scale that we're seeing it for quite a long time, if we were even eventually going to witness it.

It's not just big oil companies, who seem to be making investments quietly in renewable energy to keep themselves afloat as oil runs out. It's their employees - geologists, for one, may be on the other side of this debate, as a lot of them are employed by big oil.

In other words: it's a matter of political un-will, because those who are getting rich off it won't take the long-term vision.

Another reason to boycott the system?

There's probably a way to force their hand sooner or later.
