Well, while I agree it is happening to slow, compared to the 90ies, or even 10 years ago, it isn't slow. It is happening in an unprecedented rate. And some bodies, like EU, has taken som massive steps in legalisation last year addressing huge areas, from energy use to transportation. And in both China and the US (and everywhere else) renewables outperforms fossil tech in new investments. And seasonal energy storage issues are addressed as well, which could adress one of the big ones, seasonal heating needs (that's 40% of total energy usage in the north).

As for your example of coal mines. They are already dead tech, although it will take a little while longer for everyone to realise it. And that is by affecting decisionmakers and without violence. As for oil use in general, we need an alternative to the car. When people stop using cars, be it by better commuting options, electric scooters or electric kickbikes and "follow me home" carrying drones, oil will see it's days counted to.

And coming around to my first comment, these are corporate and government decisions outlined. As a part of the public, we have a choice to either stick to our old ways, or try to learn something new and add our weight to the bandwagon.
