What I find disheartening is that the "Stop-Gap" solutions are more energy inefficient or down right dangerous like the current trend to use "Clean-Green-Fluoro Light globes", Gas powered Public transport is another area where the cost of 'being Green' far out weighs the return of reduced emissions.
This is such a big ask and is no where near foreseeable. What makes it worse is that all these ideas are there...ready to be developed, have been for decades and frustratingly nothing is being done nor looks like it will be done.
