Sending some of that money to renewables would provide the benefit of cheaper energy, cleaner air and reduce the severity of climate change.
Unfortunately there are so many economies (the entire middle East, Russia and it's neighbouring - stans, and the US) who's entire economy relies on these industries. Sadly people don't notice these subsidies and make the assumption that green is more expensive when it's actually a fraction of the price.
It's all money and governments looking after themselves.
