Power generation is predominantly coal and natural gas. Liquid petroleum, the base material for plastics, is used very little for electrical generation.
So do you want to explain again how using more renewables instead of coal and natural gas is going to drive up plastic production? I think your point is just reflexively pessimistic.
They’ll still use it to make tons of plastic though.
And animal cruelty will be totally unaffected.
All I’m saying is fuel/power is not the only thing it’s used for and if oil companies start losing money in one area they’ll ramp up another.

The article is about liquid petroleum.
So what? That’s not an answer to my question or a followup to your comment.
I’m not answering your question because it’s a ridiculous thing to argue about. Have a nice life.
No one’s arguing. You chipped in. It didn’t make sense. You can’t make it make sense, apparently. I guess we really are done here then.
Just don’t know how to shut the fuck up, do you? Damn.
