Cody Battershill: I haven't noticed many of these wealthy film idols advocating for poor people who can't even pay for the most basic, reliable oil-based technologies -- natural gas for cooking, heating and electricity, or gasoline for transportation, or petroleum-derived plastics and fertilizers that contribute to shelter, clothing and agriculture.
When renewable energy technologies finally catch up to society's demands, then eventually this all may change. But since renewable alternatives today just can't support societal needs, then cutting off affordable petroleum-based resources isn't just frivolous; it's harmful to the most vulnerable people in society.
