OK so the situation is pretty bad. I mean just look at Alberta, Canada where they take that tar sand and completely destroying forests and turning them into unlivable toxic deserts which is now area larger then England

Then that Keystone Pipeline that has so many activist groups against it... etc Oil = destrucion
But the solution seems so easy. Building solar concentrators, especially the linear kind, are gaining steam, so to speak. There have been dubious pronouncements that 9% of the area of Nevada could provide enough solar electricity to supply the entire USA. With that much clean energy we can also easily make methanol inorganically that can fuel cars people already have. This can be done in just few years, probably less then 5 years and just imagine how much problems that could solve! Really try to imagine.
I guess the question is why has it become so hard to build bunch of mirrors and put them in the deserts of Nevada and/or Texas or even California?

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
