I hope that others do not take information like this as evidence that fossil fuels are somehow better or cleaner. Sensible people should be able to see that the net gains from cleaner energy sources and distribution models are worth it, and that we can and should pressure companies to treat workers and the environment fairly.
We should be aware that just because something is better than an alternative, does not mean that such corporations should be allowed to do the bare minimum, and our voices as citizens and consumers matter when it comes to dealing with behavior like this.
The fossil fuel is in no way better than the alternative energy mentioned in the post in terms of pollution/ adverse effect on both people and environment as clearly stated in the article. The post examines the side of the green energy that some may not be privy to. Thanks
I think you misunderstood me. I said that the solar panes were created because a betteroption was sought for, and that is what drives technology; the question 'what better option is there?'
I know fossil fuel is far worse.
Oh, I get it now. Yes, Technology gets better with time as it tries to solve humankind's problems.
