> I don't know why you are blaming greed so much?
Really? I thought it was pretty obvious for anyone to see that the lobbying and bribing behemoth of the oil and gas industry is driven in no small part by greed. As others have mentioned, the short-sighted pursuit of profit drove those oil tycoons to not enter the renewables industry and actively oppose it.
Other industries optimise for profit just as much, ie they are just as greedy, but we don't see the same effects in all of them.
So I don't think (differences in) greed explains what we are seeing.
