Hilariously, as soon as it became clear the grift wasn’t there one of the interviewees is now in Environmental conservation.

Almost as if the large scale material structure of the economy affects people’s actions. I wonder if anyone thought of that before?

But Mr. Zagurski, 23, said the oil and gas industry will bounce back just as it has many times over the last century despite popular notions that the pandemic would permanently reduce energy consuming habits. “Demand is going to come back,” he said. “Let’s be honest here, how many things in our daily lives have some kind of a petroleum-based product in them.”

I’m a geophysics soon-to-be grad, and I’m glad I have the option to go into renewables and environmental consulting, cuz I don’t know what I’d do if I had to be in the petroleum industry. I took a class on it and the professor was an ex-Exxon well analyst who was the snottiest, pompous elitist I’ve ever met. She dug wells in sudan, drilling into lake Tchad (which is a unesco world heritage site).

Fuck that shit.
