That thing I said about nothing we do now changing much in the climate line for the short term ... note the timeframe for "short term" ... that's what makes it so hard to sell anything that is seen as changing the way people do things. If the current generation in charge (boomers, though with some attrition) won't see any significant improvement based on changing the way things work, then there's no incentive to make the effort even if belief systems allow it (many don't). If all the benefit (if any can be quantified) accrues several generations down the line, then nobody now alive has much incentive. And you think your kids hate you now ...
