Because there is an impending global catastrophe they have determined is unavoidable and unpreventable that they have kept under wraps due to the inevitable collapse of society once people learn of it. This is why there are no long term plans for anything anymore. Because there won't be a long term.

There never were long term plans. Market economics is an evolutionary system. Business are the organisms with that system (so are nations, and any other organization made of people, really). So long as a business metabolizes human labor into profit, it continues. What looks like planning was really just ~two centuries of exponential growth. There is no driver's seat, not really. The capitalist that forsakes profit doesn't stay a capitalist long. The system itself imposes a greater selective pressure than any individual human will. It will outlast last its components... until it doesn't. Nothing can maintain both exponential growth and equilibrium within it's environment.
