First off, you attribute a quote made by u2drvr to me. Secondly you have assumed(notice that word coming up frequently) that this country and others are not working toward the goals you mentioned. This is incorrect, and a little study would show that tremendous advances have been made toward energy economy and reduction in pollution.
You want more and that is fine, but we can't wish it into being, legislate technology or snap our fingers and make all the bad things go away.
I am happy to see you saying something besides "watch the movie".
You are an engineer. Can you run us a quick cost study on the size and cost of solar arrays to equal the energy of about 7 billion barrels of oil a year plus the cost of any infrastructure changes? Can you compare the cost and efficiency to a similar size nuclear program? Can you project the impact on the average citizen?
