It seems to me that the government of all countries United against alternative energy sources. This is because a very large income to the Treasury brings energy taxes. I guess the government doesn't know what to replace these revenues.
The leaders don't know the adverse effects of what we have now, especially the oil and mining community. If it isn't regulated the way it should be or following strict regulation and compliance to the rules, it should be stopped. It's not just that, it should be to help the environment, that's why it's so sad that the government wants those kinds still.
Why do you think that government leaders do not know about environmental problems? Do you think they are stupid? Believe me they know the issue better than you. Just as they are responsible for public finances. Yes they can save the environment, but it will have nothing to pay pension. How do you think they will choose?
I don't think that they are stupid, they just know that it happens but not why it happens. I do not generalize them all but there are politicians who makes science as not facts but theories. If you have seen others that do that, you will understand. Let's say you go with that option of yours, (paying pension instead of saving the planet)  happens to the place we live in? It will just be destroyed, and it's our fault because we didn't do much about it.
I think that the world will be saved by the fact that oil will end. I think that it will encourage politicians to look for new sources of funding for social programs. Personally I had hope for Elon musk, but in recent years, he departs from the projects using alternative energy sources.
