The Hydrocarbon Era’s Spectacular End

I almost have goosebumps reading that passage. People's demand for (and right to) high living standards is truly a significant issue, but it's often framed in a way that derails anti-fossil fuel arguments. This reframes that, however, and offers a relevant critique of what "high living standards" is often assumed to imply.

That's because it's framed deliberately by bad-faith energy-industrial proponents, and repeated by "useful innocents".

Those "living under the poverty line of imagination", to stay within the article's elegant framing.
