There are other ways, in general.

I don’t think they use these two particular things, but different countries have different Standards. If you want to go that route, they also use tractors or other machinery using oil in some capacity.

There are fertilizers without oil production, it’s just not scaleable in comparison and fell out of favor due to other stuff. But organic products without these kinds of fertilizers exist.

This is like oil propaganda.

I remember a ‘not just bikes’ video on which he showed a video from the 80-90s that was literally this setup: a teenager suddenly has to live without oil products, and they pick specific large impact things to get the pre determined result: the teenager is happy for all the oil products.

Yes, we are using it for a lot of different things. A lot of industries just don’t want to find some large scale replacement, because why would they without incentives. We do have alternatives for a lot of things, just not mass produced or optimized. The goal should not be to get rid of it completely (because that is incredibly hard, and might be overly complex), the goal is to get rid of things as much as possible and some products primarily, because burning petroleum is probably the most stupid way of usage.
