Clean energy innovation is producing lower-cost energy and cleaner air and water. There are better uses for OIL than just burning it up into the atmosphere. - such as for medicines and many other products.
So, for jobs, cleaner air, and medicines, as much oil as possible should be left in the ground. To accomplish that, EVs and other zero-pollution engines should be used in automotive applications as much as possible with government incentives. The main goal is to reduce the rate of increase of climate change by about 2050. People today owe that to our future generations.

Over 2 million are employed by the fossil fuel industry. Are there that many in the clean energy field? Of those in the clean energy field, are they there because of attempts to clean up fossil fuel? Or, are they ALL working on battery operated cars?
Going to reduce the rate of increase in climate change? What does that mean? You don't want the climate to change? When was there ever a time in history where the climate did not change? Sorry, but just saying that there is a climate change crisis does not convince people that it is caused by man. You might wish to stick to telling folks that there is an air pollution. You might be able to convince folks to quit eating meat because animals flatulence causes methane. Maybe you can convince folks from having babies because there are too many people in the world. Maybe if we eliminate all living things from the world, the world will be nice and clean. Darn, we still have to stop the volcanoes from doing more harm in our atmosphere than all the people living on earth.
