You didnt even mention the environmental damage posed by the increased proliferation of complex and dangerous pesticides and insecticides that are having their own incredibly destructive effect on the environment.
As someone who lives in the corn belt of the US, I am, in general, opposed to the idea of using corn or other grown crops to decrease our dependence on fossil fuels. I think that the more common-sense approach is to increasing our efficiency in solar and especially wind power. Also, I would invest more in figuring out how Tesla was planning to harness static electricity from the environment itself and converting it to usable electricity. He described being able to transmit energy wirelessly and without emissions from burning coal. He was thought to be crazy in his day, but I would think by now that would be an attainable goal to reach for.
Id really like to start by forcing corporations to release all the tech patents that they've purchased, stolen, or otherwise made to disappear, in relation to clean energy production.
