I'm right there with you, which is why I'm pessimistic about it ever happening, because I suspect the problems in question will overtake our general willingness to respond to them in any effective manner. I said five to ten years because that's really the time horizon when all these problems will really start picking up steam. In twenty, a lot of the damage will have been done and we might be too far gone to actually get a solution.
