With all the resources, information and technology within our society today, it is amazing that we have yet to adopt better ways of creating energy to feed our growing needs (basic or superfluous). Unfortunately, I think most people who are honest with themselves know why we have yet to make the rational, logical, and necessary leap.
One basic truth that is important to understand is that change will not come from above (corporations, governments, etc.), it will have to come from the bottom (citizens, entrepreneurs, etc.)
Large corporations or large structures of government are the last place we should look for fast and efficient change. These big institutions did not get that way from focusing on efficiency, but from spending energy on enforcing policies that took months and years to enact. We cannot expect them to make decisions that are effective with any great speed. That is, simply, not how they are designed.
Time and time again, history has always shown that change is a product of the few, not the many. The model for Change, historically speaking, comes from individuals, small groups, or small communities. These parties make a choice and implement it. Once everyone sees the advantage of these decisions, many people follow. You can look at any subject in modern living and see this is the case.
We are at the cusp doing something great and changing the world for the better. But that change will have to come from us as individuals. So be sure to get involved and be a part of the sustainable solution.
