Thats the easy part. Whats holding us back is the individuals that make billions off gasoline, want to also make billions off the next energy source too.
EX: If we switched to all electric, the electrical companies will be making all the money (the gasoline execs will never let that happen). As long as they have as much political power as they do now, we will be stuck using gas.
