The whole problem whether man made climate change is real or not is that it has been jumped on by leftists who seem to be determined to use the issue as a vehicle for some sort of global social justice wealth transfer.

The fact is there are no practical energy sources available or on the horizon that can replace fossil fuels. If you think the answer is for the west to deindustrialize then welcome us all to 3rd world status as I doubt you are ever going to get China to go along.

If you really want to get American "hillbillies" on board, you need to change your approach.

Frame it as a patriotic national security issue. "Every tank of gas you buy provides a Muslim terrorist with a weapon"

Stop trying to Europeanize America.

Make alt energy cars we would want to drive, like big trucks and SUV's. Yes you will have to give up on peak efficiency but that's better than trying to force us into little ugly Prius cars.

Make some cool alt energy retro 65 Mustangs and 57 Chevy's.

Like it or not, people in Phoenix will never be willing to roast with less air conditioning to be martyrs on the altar of global warming.
