<span style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px">imprinted on you and you probably didn't even think about it rationally</span><br style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px"><span style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px">because you just take the idea as given; an axiom, not a theorem.</span><br>
</div><div><br></div><div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:'comic sans ms',sans-serif">It's true that leadership and the structured society we live in is most probably an artificial construct. But we have it because it works. You're assuming everyone is interested and wants to change and what's better for the environment, which is not always the case. Even less so when ignorance gets in the way, hence the need for a cultural change and if necessary, leaders to step in during the transitional change.</div>
<div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:'comic sans ms',sans-serif"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:'comic sans ms',sans-serif">The most optimist ideal I think is a descentralized society where everyone participates and wants to work towards the goal of a better future for everyone, but reality is different. If we don't work considering all aspects we have then we really work under a delusion and are no different from the patients you talk about.</div>

We need to plant nukes as fast as we can get them in the ground, but during that process we will be burning coal and oil. There are some parts of the globe were solar is better than nuclear, such as the Sahara. Plenty of sun, cloudless skies and open land there and plenty of reasons to not put nuclear plants. I can see nukes being a big player in our energy future, but not the only player.</span></div>
