There is a reason that candidates likes this are all at the margin - they never consider the second order effects of their ideas. While his goal may be laudable, it would harm way more people than it would help.

Let’s look at a couple simple things that getting rid of oil production would impact. (and keep in mind I’m keeping this short because typing on a mobile device sucks)

1 - price of electricity would go up (due to fuel costs) 2 - price of concrete would go up (due to both carbon usage and energy usage) 3 - price of steel would go up (probably way up due to the energy Use) 4 - price of plastic would go up (because of higher material cost)

Other third-order effects would happen too:

5 - price of food would go up (because of higher fuel and material cost) 6 - housing costs would rise (due to energy costs and things like PVC which make up huge portions of any modern plumbing system) 7 - inflation would rise (due to energy, food, and materials price increases)

And it just gets worse, hitting those on a budget or low income especially hard.

Again, the ideas may be laudable, but changes like this take decades - like 5+ decades, not just one or two.
