I'm still waiting for this to happen.Ok, I'll add another direction. The real environment saviour will need to be a different energy source other than electric (based on our current knowledge of electricity generation).
It may be nuclear power IF they can ever figure out cold fusion (or nuclear fusion). As everyone knows, nuclear power is splitting atoms. Energy can also be created by fusing the atoms back together. However, at this point in time fusion uses more energy than it creates. If they can figure out the fusion process, then we would have an eternal source of renewable energy.
(....and before someone calls me on it; yes, I know energy can not be created. "Energy can neither be created nor destroyed, it can only be transformed".)
In 1954, the Atomic Energy Commission chairman predicted that within 15 years nuclear power would make electricity “too cheap to meter.”
