To your last sentence, I don’t think it is actually. What you are asking for is not “baked in” reality. There’s lots to talk about here too. If you sit and think about it for awhile, and how everything you know about how the world works, think about stripping fossil fuels from the equation and let us know how the world works without them. I’ll give you an example. Food supplies are transported all over the world. How do you propose we transport food without fossil fuels?
I don't mean this as a glib retort, but don't you think that's exactly what people working on this are doing? That they're just ignoring things like food transportation? This isn't "take out fossil fuels with no replacement". Literally zero credible people are advocating for that. It's a total strawman
