Honestly people would never change their diet or give up internal combustion because you wanted them to. I have always been diet conscious and have said to myself “ hey I could be a vegetarian” right up to the point a doomsayer environmentalist or a preachy vegetarian comes along and I go out and get a juicy burger just for the sheer joy of pissing the most judgmental people the world has seen since a 1950’s era Southern Baptist.
The world will not be saved by doom prophets but by bright entrepreneurs like Elon Musk and the scientist in the link below that are growing affordable meat in a lab so we can continue our carnivore lifestyle into the next millennium. In reality they see a huge opportunity to make a profit and the people that will consume lab grown meats will buy it because it tastes good and is priced reasonably. The same is true for electric cars and solar power; they are here to stay because they are practical and a Tesla is dam sexy.
Environmentalist; the boat is sinking and all they can do is repeat the boat is sinking over and over and over while expecting us to lose weight to slow the rate of decent. Some smart engineer or scientist plugs that darn hole and relaxes with a tasty lab grown sirloin cooked on his solar grill.
One day history will look back on this time and environmentalist will be listed in obscurity along with other doomsday cults like “ The Heavens Gate and The Order of the Solar Temple”. History will be left wondering about all the treasure and time that was wasted talking about a problem instead of fixing it.
