"Just because an investment isn’t attractive, is that reason for not doing research?"

No one is stopping you from doing the research Shell does not want to do..get up off your computer chair and go do some research, spend a few (millions? billions?) and get back to us when you think it will make monetary sense.

Invest your time, your money first, not mine...if you can make it profitable, then I will see to it you keep all those profits for yourself...(Congress will have other ideas to that end, I assure you.)

Right. If organizations that do have a lot of money do not do the research, who will?
