Reflection on political will

Hello,
For some time, already surfing the net, I find a lot of articles, patents, methods and others allowing for YEARS to decrease if not suppress the need for fossil fuel for the production of energy and transport, moreover, there seem to be clean means of using nuclear power without producing these very long-lived wastes that poison our environment.
It seems to me, even at the risk of being cataloged in anarchists, that the major obstacle to the development of these techniques is a real political will not to change ANYTHING in the current system, the only pseudo-advances have been, for example, the use of catalytic converters, which are just a bad thing for vehicles.
Political power does not in fact have any power or one conferred on it by the power of money, as proof of the examples of companies OBLIGATING their workers to accept losing hard-won social benefits in the past under the pretext of profitability: the non workers impose their laws on workers. (examples in Germany and undoubtedly, the fold being taken, soon elsewhere in Europe)
While we know full well that these companies make significant profits, and that their "debts" are often due to financial shenanigans well put together in relocation, transfer of production etc.
Politicians are supposed to represent their constituents, ie us, not financiers, so why no real measure is taken to IMPOSE industries to use certain processes? It is obvious that we must not, under pain of seeing the economy collapse because the transition must be smooth, impose a radical and immediate change, but mark a real desire for reasoned change in terms of sustainability and obtain these changes by the political power really representing the citizens.
