Thank you for your thoughtful insights, Tom. You’re absolutely right; the transition to renewables does hinge on our current energy infrastructure, heavily reliant on fossil fuels. It’s a paradox we must confront: while we push for a sustainable future, we’re still shackled to the very systems that threaten it. The greed and short-sightedness of the fossil fuel industry have indeed delayed our progress. However, recognizing this dilemma doesn’t mean we’re doomed; it emphasizes the urgency of holding these companies accountable and advocating for innovative solutions that lessen our dependence on fossil fuels as we move toward a greener future.

Let’s continue pushing for a transformative change that doesn’t repeat the mistakes of the past.
