I don't think this is a real issue if you are not wanting to make a lot of money.
Amazon just build the best logistics network on the planet and leverages this for their monopoly.
FB pushed fake news and everyting else without consideration as long as it grabs your attention which they then sell.
You make the way of reaching your target faster.
But i did compensate for 5 diopter relativly good.
I did learn plenty of that research, made me more aware of eye sight and because i was very young, hard to say that it was obvious to just accept it at that time.
In hindsight my school grades were definitly worste than they had to be...
And regarding noise: We have a wonderful big lake here in germany and small mountains around it, you can hear the autobahn (going around it) everywhere and we really do a shitty job with handling car noise. Even on the small mountain or in the nature area you hear cars.
I definitly will move out of the city in the next few years and in an area which does not have a autobahn close by. I'm happy driving 30-60 minutes to the autobahn.
You suggest hydrogen as an real alternative? But Beavers not?
But then you mention 'environmental movements' which sounds you think this is stupid?
