Big Oil is not our friend. They are not our ally. They are not even a neutral company providing a product we all need to live modern society. Big Oil has spent the last century convincing us that petroleum is the only option. They’ve done it by suppressing clean alternatives, manipulating infrastructure, bribing politicians, and flooding public discourse with misinformation.
Here’s the truth: alternative fuels like biodiesel, renewable diesel, batteries and hydrogen are real. They work. And we and our partners and all already put them to good use. At Planetary Transport Company, we’ve moved over 25,000 passengers to events, concerts, and festivals across the Rocky Mountain West—using a mix of renewable fuels including biodiesel and renewable diesel. We’ve powered the generators and production equipment at major and midsize festivals with clean burning biodiesel. The result? Hundreds of tons of carbon dioxide, soot, and carcinogenic particulates kept out of the air and atmosphere. Biodiesel and renewable diesel are made from recycled cooking oil, agricultural feedstocks, and other sustainable sources. It runs in standard diesel engines. It reduces carbon dioxide emissions by up to 86%. It cuts out carcinogenic particulates that poison our lungs and our communities. And—most importantly—it puts power back into the hands of artists and communities instead of oil companies.
Petroleum isn’t just expensive. It’s toxic. And it’s locking us into a nightmarish future we didn’t choose. We have to stop giving these monsters our money. We have to invest in ourselves and own our own fuel.
We’re not interested in slow transitions or empty promises. We’re building real alternatives, right now. And we’re inviting you to help us scale this model—through our Wefunder campaign.
If you’re ready to back real climate solutions, artist-owned infrastructure, and a future that puts people over profit—this is your moment.
