As funny as it is watching oil die like this (in the flames of war), it's also depressing as fuck. This attack and the several oil tankers sunk in Hormuz are all separately ecological disasters and are going to take a significant period of time cleaning up (if they are even cleaned up).

    As opposed to the rolling ecological disaster of oil extraction and distribution working normally?

    It's all an ecological disaster; What I mentioned is rather acute and localized though. I'd prefer the downfall of oil to not obliterate localized ecosystems.

    I’m sorry. Is it really that bad for me to not want areas completely destroyed due to oil spills and/or fires? These occurrences are wildly destructive in the areas that they take place. It takes years to clean it up. Or are you just using me as a punching bag to be funny just because you can?
