Pretty soon, in most situations, the green options are going to be the cheap options, and that's going to drive a change in human behaviour.

I'm pessimistic about changing human nature, but I'm optimistic that our greedy nature will continue to innovate more efficient products and cheaper sources of energy.

China is leading the way in something, but I'm not sure we should give an award for it.
