“We need the fossil fuels to get more fossil fuels to move the fossil fuels just to take the fossil-fuel thing to the fossil fuel store to get more fossil fuels!” -people that sell fossil fuels

You need fuel to move the fuel that moves the fuel that moves the rocket

Yes, but you can’t resell it for a profit elsewhere easily. You want us to switch to sky energy, we need a way to make the output portable so someone can make money on it. I really hate capitalism and hope this is the fall at a global level. Though if anyone was watching, China has been making the right moves towards solar and transport. If they stop oppressing their people i’ll move all my soon to be worthless USD to YUAN.

…and that would drop the amount of marine fuel needed. Compound interest.

which means we need to transport less fuel around, so less ships

That really depends on what you will run all the remaining ships. Current battery technology isn’t suitable for large container ships, sails work for smaller ships. There are ideas to use ammonia as fuel for large ships, and it won’t be made were it is consumed, countries like Namibia are planning on becoming large suppliers of ammonia. If this comes true you’ll get 40% of all ships just carrying ammonia around the world.
