Maybe I am reading it differently than you are. Most posters are saying it is inevitable, and are just relating the obstacles that must be overcome before we reach that point. Great to set high expectations,, but the reality for most, is how are you going to put food on the table. Personally I would like to see a carbon free world , but realize I am going have to fill up my truck with fossil fuel for a while before that can happen. I can also sympathize with the workers who will have to sacrifice a good paycheck in the name of progress. And I disagree that everything doesn't have to in place. It will be a transition, but you cannot ban diesel semi's before you develop an electric truck that will fulfil the same duties.
On that note, agree with NamMed, much ado about nothing, it will happen when it happens, last comment from me.
