If the corruptive influence of Big Oil can somehow, someday, be removed from the economics of energy and transportation, renewables will become the deal of the century, almost overnight.

Accepting the fact that the Trump administration of completely dedicated to the fossil fuel industry as its main source of donations, we need to hope to that the majority of humankind votes with its wallet in the direction of the survival of the planet.

A common tactic of Big Oil and the rest of the Trump-supporting world is to point out that some of our government’s investments in cleantech do not pan out.

Unscrupulous people, as well as tens of millions of idiots, are enraged by these failures and interpret them as evidence of incompetence and/or corruption.
