Show me the proof that if more people walked to work and had solar panels, that the flooding out west would not have happened.
I completely agree that we are seeing more severe weather events.
"innovation can happen quickly with the right push"
Whoever invents practical, affordable green energy, will be the worlds wealthiest person immediately. That's more than enough push. The problem isn't lack of incentive. The problem is physics and nature. You can't make something happen by wanting it badly enough.
