Working in oil tends to inherently select for people who don’t care at all about other people. If they did they wouldn’t make a career out of destroying the earth for every future human.
I currently work in a shitty industry that argubly causes considerable social harm, the main reason being I need a job as do all my colleagues. Hate the game not the player.
While there are many such people, there are also many workers who are just as exploited by capitalism as you, and are just getting by, or work for a company that does work for oil companies from time to time and you don’t get to choose what projects you’re on.
As with most things, it’s capitalism that needs to end in order to have much chance of mitigating climate catastrophe.

Nah I left immoral work and live in poverty…but at least I’m clean and honest
Hope nothing bad happens to you to where you wish you had money and agency.
I enjoy affording a place to live ¯\(ツ)/¯

Pious much?
My point: hope you never use transportation or have to use plastic. We’re all in this together.
