Here in the UK at least, the media has encouraged support for action against climate change by lying about exactly this. They've run talking points like "Just 100 companies responsible for 71% of global emissions" that only count where the fossil fuels are produced, not even where they're burned let alone the end consumers of the products. Of course, it's not possible to stop only production and not consumption so this misleads readers about the actual consequences of doing so and who's affected, but it worked to convince people that the only reason governments haven't shut down fossil fuel production because they're in the pockets of Big Oil.

At the same time, we've had a cost of living crisis caused by inadequate global fossil fuel production and all the same publications attacking big oil and the government for the fact that people can't afford to consume as much and telling people that drops in the amount they can buy with their income are caused by corporations and the goverment plotting to enrich themselves at the public's expense. In reality, of course, it's a consequence of the global economy not being able to produce as much of the things people want and further cuts to fossil fuel production would makes everyone even poorer.
