We can leave it in the ground and it would be crazy to want to “max out oil and gas”
“crazy” as in an obvious sign that some politicians don’t understand what the hell they’re talking about.
Or to be more polite, they’re not listening to the scientific advice because they don’t understand the science. George Monbiot thinks some leaders are sociopaths.
However, the fact that #COP28 agreed that fossil fuels need to be phased out, is a big win for humanity (considering)
Government with cancellation of $6b of projects unless they got appropriate legislation.
I’m a yank, so I might be talking out of the wrong hole here. That sounds like an empty threat. If those projects are in their interest, they will do them. Assume corporations will act in their own interest, unless they are organized like Facebook and their management is immune. Otherwise, less principled institutional and large share holders will replace them.

@neanderthal my thoughts exactly.
Yep. Well aware
