I do agree, we must ween ourselves off burning petroleum. Even makers of plastics must find different sources for their base material. They will probably be the last users of it.
I found something related to global warming, but I don't see a recent post of yours to reference it, so I'll just add it here. Have your heard of the Little Ice Age? I'm wondering if our current climate could trigger a repeat. If not worse. Or, perhaps we should try and trigger a few volcanoes...
Actually, I've done a bit of research on the LIA, as part of my overall research on the climate leading up to the industrial age.
There was an article that proposed a solution:

All we need to do is dump a lot of Sulfur Dioxide into the upper atmosphere. Right, an expensive short-term solution to a long-term problem. Nobody is taking it seriously, fortunately.
