Quite fashionable for wealthy westerners to dismiss oil being critical to economy. What most never discuss is that current world population and trajectory of that population both rely on predictable/abundant crop yields to feed us all. When the price of rice, wheat, corn, various fruits & veggies climbs, much of the world starves.
Can't have it both ways.
Fossil Fuels are 83% of global power consumption. Remove fossil fuels too quickly, you collapse food supply chains. That doesn't start to touch on heating and cooling power demands etc.
