I think government has to provide some kind of direction for the future because the market won't. We see it all the time. When fuel prices go down, sales of gas guzzlers go up and fuel efficient vehicles go down. When fuel prices go up, the opposite happens and in both cases manufacturers supply what the customer is buying.
Our air and water is cleaner than 50 years ago in spite of a 50% increase in population Whether you like how they have done it or not, the EPA has to get a lot of the credit for that.
Wish the board had a thumbs up.
Its an age old argument that only changes as one generation replaces another. The older generation have been conditioned to believe that putting the environment somehow costs more money and creates poverty. not their fault, its just the thinking of the era. It'll change over time.
Oh and far as China being the polluters, nope, we are the pigs of the planet. They may produce more pollution over all (they have four times the population) but they put out less than half per capita than what we do. It all starts at home.
