    The main problem I see with all this is that change will move at the speed of the economy and finances … companies and businesses will wait to see if someone or something will come along that will make a ton of money quickly and easily while also doing something for the environment and that people like. None of the investors will actively go out to encourage anyone to develop this magical unicorn business. They will all just wait around to see it appear on a stock ticker and give them promise of profit.

      The only solution like that would be something like carbon capture and investors put a lot of money into that. To not emit as much, we need to deploy a lot of different solutions. Those however replace old ones, which means old industry is fighting hard to stop it.
