I don't think that the average "environmentalist" (to paint them with an extremely wide and unfair brush) has a good grasp about how much these solutions actually take. I hear "solve the solution no matter what", without even asking how much. They don't care about the cost, as it's coming out of the gov'ts pockets (without realizing it comes out of theirs too).
Coming up with a solution is a good thing... but it should be evaluated against cost as well. Demanding a cost-effective solution should lead to other solutions.. but instead they just want A solution and solely promote that solution instead of first evaluating it. I have a hard time figuring that their own personal finances are performed in this same way.
I admit that there are lots of generalizations in the above... but it's how I see it. A solution is a good first step, but it shouldn't be the only step.
