It is the system that drives our behaviour and, put simply, if someone can make a profit out of fuel inefficiency and waste then things won't change.
Why not include mini generators in the water supply system - every time you use some water a little generator turns and provides some (tiny amount) of power to the grid? In the main arteries this would be quite a substantial amount. Because it would eat into the profits of power suppliers.
If we lived in a democracy we could decide such things for ourselves.
