I've got a really big bridge for sale.

True but will we ever get a say? I liken it to the current coal/renewables debate. Renewables are going to provide power requirements for the future, so really the debate is more about transitioning over to them.
Now with some major cities banning Diesel and petrol cars in the future, the writing is on the wall for fossil powered cars. Maybe not in my life time though.
