It is a truly ingenious approach to solving the transportation portion of the carbon issue. Although I think Agassi is going at it the right way in attacking it state by state, island nation by island nation. Prove out the concept and then all the skeptics will jump on board.

As your post clearly explains, it is going to take all kinds of people from the “Geeks to the Wonks”, in order to drive this planet into our next evolutionary stage. Thank you for covering this most important topic.

The graphic is mine. I’m playing with the idea that there is a spectrum, from science to the more mundane crafts of marketing, sales & distribution where companies can find competitive advantage. I put policy/regulation on the spectrum as well, since it’s a big factor in clean tech and elsewhere. But it doesn’t seem really to belong at one end of the spectrum. Rather, it kind of spans everything. If the general concept resonates with you and you have a better idea for how to represent it, I’d love to hear it. Thanks.
