They couldn't glance out the window in Buffalo the other day because there was snow covering them: <
One merely needs to glance out the window to realize that what the scientists have been telling us for decades has more validity than a gaggle of politicians and media talking heads assuring us that there is no linkage between our weather and our burning of carbon based fuels

Or do you mean that snow shows that Global Warming really freezes things up? Despite the assertion that our children won't know what snow is... giggle from the gaggle.

You are right that it was foolish to bet on oil staying at $120 a barrel. There are too many alternatives at that price. Of course oil and gas prices would fall so would the investment value: < it is a foolish investor indeed who doubled down on the future of oil and gas

What the hell did they expect to happen to those investments

Don't worry about CO2 emissions. It's a self-limiting problem. More CO2 enables more chlorophyll which removes more CO2. Then Peak People will arrive. More competition with oil will take over. People don't like buying oil as it's expensive, so they are always looking for ways to avoid paying by doing something else. Such as ordering groceries and other things via Cyberspace. Insulating houses. Riding bicycles. Inventing thorium reactors. Driving electric cars. Installing photovoltaics.
