Nobody’s addicted to anything here. There’s a demand for energy, and a supply of it in the market.
> addicted specifically to fossil fuels
Even if you put aside the frankly silly premise that anything the market has a demand for, it must be addicted to, the demand is for energy, not energy produced in a specific way. If you had two light bulbs, one powered by coal, and another powered by a renewable source, do you think there is a single person in the world that could tell them apart?
