To me that sounds like politics, unless you're going to be more specific, or at best economics (distribution of scarce resources). I think many of us are concerned about that kind of thing (and active), but given our own comparative advantages, may feel that it's best to concentrate on what we do best.
> level of cleantech investment is tiny
There are a few guys here with money to invest, but not that many. That's a fair comment, though.
> i appreciate that it's a lot to handle. but aren't you guys supposed to be revolutionaries?
I'm not sure I'd define myself that way - I'm a hacker with a predilection for open source software, and I like to "build stuff". I can't speak for other people. Right now I'm simply hoping to be able to find a niche where I can make a good living for myself making something cool, and my guess is that that probably doesn't include big, world changing ideas. Can't speak for anyone else, but I'd probably look askance at anyone who describes themselves to others as a "revolutionary". Guess I'm at an age where I'm content to leave the world a better place than I found it by doing my part.
