Cave men lived oil free.

“An Asian peasant who labors through all of his waking hours, with tools created in Biblical times—a South American aborigine who is devoured by piranha in a jungle stream—an African who is bitten by the tsetse fly—an Arab whose teeth are green with decay in his mouth—these do live with their “natural environment,” but are scarcely able to appreciate its beauty. Try to tell a Chinese mother, whose child is dying of cholera: “Should one do everything one can? Of course not.” Try to tell a Russian housewife, who trudges miles on foot in sub-zero weather in order to spend hours standing in line at a state store dispensing food rations, that America is defiled by shopping centers, expressways and family cars.”

Greens are always saying global warming knowledge goes back to Tyndale (1861) or Arrhenius(1896). But they also say it was an oil industry secret in the 1980's.

This is great. We know what asphalt is made from, but what about polyvinyl acetate - the binder in modern paints? Yep, also a fossil fuel product.
