'The opposite of innovative'

The current [U.K.] coal policy illuminates just how static and rigid - the opposite of innovative - Britain's energy policy is. This lack of innovation has been fought for, and won, by the large companies and lobbies, so they can carry on doing as they wish - despite the urgency of climate change. The government has been complicit in this, and it is the people of Britain, and their children, who will have to pay for the consequences.
