      Why cant scientific progress not be a group effort with everyone doing their part according to their means?

      Why does it have to be the greed addicts with the power to initiate human greatness and ingenuity?

      Don’t we all want essentially the same things?

      • sustainable power production

      • sustainable homes in a sustainable climate
