You're missing the entire point.
Big Green has attempted to paint this false picture that it's just a bunch of pine cone eaters in shacks going up against Big Bad Oil.
In reality, it's well heeled multi-million/billion dollar enterprises, with the backing of a Federal Gov't who is funneling billions towards group think warmist psuedo-scientists worshiping at the alter of Global Climate Change Orthodoxy.
On a somewhat related note: Someone in another forum mentioned what some have mentioned on here regarding a region of our country that includes Western Kansas. There's a very strong possibility that we, for lack of better words, lucked out in the last few hundred years in that we caught the Western Kansas, Eastern Colorado, and Panhandle regions of Texas and Oklahoma and parts of New Mexico in a period of relative moisture surplus (for lack of better words) and now that region of our country is reverting back to its relative normal state when traced back in the timeline of Earth history, or at least the timeline of this current phase of Earth history and climate.
