.I've explained why...but you're still the kid in the back seat yelling "Are We There Yet?"...

this shift away from reliance on fossil fuels for heat and power is...wait for it.........a HUGE undertaking...one that is going to require decades to complete...there are important infrastructure changes that must be made...most importantly the building of new electric power plants and services to get that power to everyone...we're just getting started...

It's a monumental challenge even if every single person is on board with the end goal in mind...sadly, there are significant numbers of citizens who can't, or won't, appreciate the reasons why this change is taking place and therefore make it unnecessarily harder and take much longer to achieve...but that's just reality, and needs to be dealt with.

You'll be carping and complaining even up to the point when you have no other choice but to buy an EV...or spend a fortune on a "Classic" and then try to find a "Gas Station".
