I'm just saying that there aren't any companies that I know of that currently can meaningfully affect the issue. Working for companies that are researching future tech is probably the next best thing.
Ah got it. I guess I disagree, I think there are probably over a thousand companies actively working on the issue with the potential to massively reduce GHG emissions. Lots of examples in this thread. General categories are:
- EV manufacturers (eg Tesla)
- Solar OEMs (eg SunPower)
- Battery makers (eg Avalon)
- Battery operators (eg Geli, AMS)
- Wind providers (eg Vestas)
- Large utilities which are focused on renewables (eg Enel)
- Distributed generation companies (eg Sunrun)
I also agree that fundamental research (either towards an energy storage breakthrough or a next-gen nuclear breakthrough) are necessary. I think this is a "yes and" situation.

The list goes on! GTM is a good news site with the pulse on each industry (https://www.greentechmedia.com)
