      Hydraulics already work off electricity. We already have electric cargo ships. Electric planes and semi trucks already exist. The percentage of machines that absolutely require fossil fuels at this point is shrinking rapidly.

      Using an outdated metric continues to be dumb, regardless of your own limited awareness of the alternatives.
