Every drop of petro-fuel should remain right were it is until/unless the techniques are developed to use it safely. The prices of denying the science, avoiding changes, or changing too slowly seem higher than many want to pay, but this is short-term thinking.

That is valid for all fossil fuels, not just Diesel.
Edit. We are going fast against a brick wall. I am well aware of that.
