One of the hardest things to miss these days is now global warming is influencing our lives. What is the media giving as the reason? The majority of the time, it's carbon emissions. So why is no one working harder to develop vehicles that run on electricity? Green innovation is receiving a huge push from all around the industry, in addition to all around the world. At Innovating to Win, they recently wrote an post on this.

The current problem right now is the amount of power a battery can hold. There are some innovators out there donating money and energy into the innovation process, but will anything ever come out of this? I think the biggest thing to fear in this whole situation is the oil companies. They're at a loss if a better method other than fuel is found to give power to machinery. So why aren't they the ones working on innovation for this?
