How Stupid is the Car Industry

Ok, for the sake of argument, lets just go with the wacky conspiracy theorists that ALL the scientists have got it wrong on Global Warming. Let's just imagine that there is some all-powerful interest behind all the overwhelming evidence that we are contributing to climate change at a more rapid rate than we will be able to deal with.

Even from that position it is obvious that carbon fuel is a diminishing resource.

Now if I was in an industry that was built around the ease-of-portability of oil/gas as a fuel, that relied almost exclusively on it, I would be doing all within my power to reduce the usage of that resource for other energy requirements. I would want to reserve all future oil for the sole purpose of transport. I would DRIVE the "green initiative".

But not the car industry.

No.

They don't see anything wrong with all the industrial, commercial and residential burning of oil.

They don't see that when we reduce our oil bill for heating, lighting, etc that it actually increases the longevity of their products.

DUHHH !
