To say that blame falls between governments/oil companies and consumers is to misconstrue the motivation for the continuing use of fossil fuels.

It is *shareholders* who profit from fossil fuels, and therefore they lobby and buy governments, employ policy groups to craft social narratives blocking hydrogen, and generally ensure that any real attempt to stop using fossil fuels quickly fails or is mostly ineffective.

These shareholders finance a system that will eventually lead to collapse as we realise that they cannot change.

Understanding this is key to understanding the entire climate crisis/failed transition storyline: shareholders and financiers who are profiting from the collapse must by challenged, and hydrogen needs to take priority.

Batteries will not replace conventional fuels.
