What is keeping us from making that transition is nothing more than misinformation, a lack of knowledge by most people of what is available, and an unwillingness on the part of many of our politicians for either ideological slavishness or something more self-serving, like major campaign contributions from the oil and gas corporations or from utilities who enjoy the monopoly they have on our energy systems.” PeopleSelfTodayEnergyEnjoyTechnologyPoliticianMajorsPercentAvailableOilCampaignsCorporationsContributionGasServingTransitionMonopolyUtilityIdeologicalRenewable EnergyMisinformationSelf ServingOil And GasLack Of KnowledgeCampaign Contributions Author:Mark Ruffalo
