The difference is the Suffragettes were fighting for something which should have existed anyway (giving women the right to vote) and the solution was simple (give them the right to vote).

There is no simple solution when it comes to oil; electricity isn't better, because what they call the "green" solution involves felling and burning trees, and the batteries on which the electricity is stored involves mining for lithium and cobalt, a process which leads to air and water pollution, land degradation, and potential for groundwater contamination.
