People generally invest where returns are attractive. If it doesn't make financial sense to invest in those regions, then private investors aren't going to do it.
One common argument against green energy projects is that they only have attractive returns when they come with sizeable subsidies attached, which really just means taxpayers are footing the bill.
I appreciate those same taxpayers are also footing the climate bill, but people tend to care more about the dollars in their pocket today than some future risk which may or may not affect them directly.
