    Shell manufactures enough for consumers to buy or for industry to buy so they can produce things and transport them for the consumer to buy.

    They don’t just manufacture excess fuel and oil to blow up like your previous comment alluding to.

      Shell manufactures to produce a profit it doesn’t care who buys unless it is perceived as maximizing profit. Downstream costumers are companies, militaries, and individuals.

      Shell doesn’t care whether fuel is considered excess by a military. If excess fuel is used by the military to destroy something Shell manufactured it to do that. I think you’re missing the point.

        I’ll be honest with you I feel like you’re too hellbent on inserting ‘capitalism bad’ into this conversation to ever get the point I’m trying to make.

        I don’t think there’s much point continuing this.

          You’re concerned that I’m focusing too much on capitalism in the global GHG discussion where you asked lazy questions to point fingers at consumers? lmao.

          I’m not the reason you’re not engaging in good faith in this conversation. Gotta get over this habit of blaming others for your personal disinterest.

            The narrative you’re promoting right now that individuals are blameless because it’s all the government/industry/capitalism’s fault is not helpful.
