It's interesting you cite Norway because as I said elsewhere in this thread, they are a major oil producer and exporter who are also committed to green infrastructure. That's the exact approach I think we should take!
You are right that we have a lot of encouraging tech but deploying that takes time and money, and often an 'upfront' increase in carbon emissions. Other tech looks good but hasn't been proven to scale up or is still in the trial stage (as you akcnolwedge).
As I said, I agree with you that Norway is the model to follow; but they produce a lot of oil.
