a. Pressure from big business to keep costs low, and to keep energy profits high.
b. Cost of alternative energies, which are not researched due to (a).
c. Greed of the average human who feels the need to drive alone to work, and have his precious family ride ten feet of the road in a tank. In this way, the greedy and least thoughtful live the longest, creating yet another negative selection force on the species.
d. Laziness.
e. Fear of admitting that the government has been wrong about global warming for at least the last fifteen years. Do they share science advisors with Phillip Morris?
f. So we can grow pineapples in Alaska (from King of the Hill).
