That is the probably with politics and the wall street quarterly cycle - you always sacrifice the long term for your short term gains. There have been some moves away from this but largely the system rewards/punishes people who don't operate on the short term.
Switch to renewables is such a huge win for everyone (less oil producing nations). Cheaper, cleaner electricity (unlocking new manufacturing capabilities on price), lower social unrest impacts from climate change, better water quality, less reliance on foreign oil, etc. Costs are now starting to hit the point where it's far cheaper to go renewable - if we could get some political will power to push us further we could get continued wide spread adoption and massive scale up.
