If by that they mean "burning oil", then fine.
If they instead mean "stop mining / extracting / pumping oil", it's not going to happen.
#Petroleum is the single most valuable and useful chemical feedstock on the planet. We need it, just not for burning.

#DEADLY is such a common word in the #Garden.
The list of #Poisonous #Plants is long:
#Castor #Oil Plant
#Oleander
Deadly #Nightshade
Golden dewdrop
#Rhus
Gardening itself can be very #Hazardous.
Just #Google the words "#Rose #Thorn #Knuckle" & check out the #Images. #Ouch.
Once I got stuck by a John Cabot Rose. A week later, I needed surgery to save my finger, followed by six months of #Hand #Therapy to restore motion.

Road trip toot #6 #wyoming billboard shows windmills along a ridge with the text "No Windmills! Keep Wyoming Beautiful!". I assume they mean that ironically?

#November 29, 1978
#OTD Edward Hummel, American #Plantsman & #Hybridizer died.
In 1935, Edward & his wife Minnie were featured in a #Quaker State Motor #Oil #Advertisement.
Edward examines a #Cactus in while his daughter Marquetta and son Edward gather around. Minnie is standing behind them, looking on.
Soon Edward was fielding requests from #Gardeners for more information about his cactus garden. The letters gave Edward and Minnie the #Idea to start a #MailOrder business for their #Plants.
