What the fuck?
No not when your product causes damage to the entire planet. Scientists are saying we have been burning fossil fuels far too long and at an unsustainable level. This has nothing to do with improving technology, it is nothing short of corporate greed.
Protecting business "just because" is as bad as protecting religious claims "just because". It isn't a matter of getting rid of either. It is a matter of accepting the pragmatic reality that you need to leave the past behind and work to a better future. Our species cannot afford to continue using fossil fuels.
It took several decades for scientists to convince the fuel industry to remove led from gas. It took forever for the car industry to adapt better safety standards. It should not take humans forever to adapt to better data.
Corporate "scientists" really are nothing more than apologists, not problem solvers. The most important thing in scientific method is to go where the evidence leads, not justify excuses to do damage to make a profit.
