I think you nailed it. A lot of negative comments here, so I want to add a positive one. In my own research with early green tech and Series A companies, I'm seeing amazing things. Biodigested plastic monomers, bioreactor cultivated foods, clean steel, electric ships, passive carbon capture. You name it, someone out there is making it a reality. These aren't just one-off nascent technologies. They're hitting scale in ways that make their adoption INEVITABLE. I think the problem is that most of them are in obscure places (like pet food!) or done by chemists (chemistry is hard to understand) so they're still invisible to most people.
And that's fine. It's going to happen whether people see it or not.
