Is Green Energy truly all it is cut out to be?

Was told once the "Today's Solutions are Tomorrow'e Problems".

After a story that climate change date was manipulated and know this:

I would have never thought this about solar although I questioned it's cost effectiveness. As far as electricity generation I always thought hydro-electric was a good way to go but it also has opponents.


For a starter, you could seek some better information sources.

All energy sources have a varying degree of unwanted impact. As solar panels improve, as they have been, their environmenntal impact will continue to lessen. They will probably continue to remain a significant contributor to the total energy supply. What will also be significant is where people are located.

If you live near the ocean, tidal generators can be a clean cheap source of electrical energy generation as the tideswill continue to flow. But there is no one best solution for everywhere.

Wind generators will kill some birds, tidal generators will kill some fish, but coal and oil powrerd generators can kill people along with the economy.

Power generated atomicly is clean but the lifspan of an atomic generating plant is finite, and remains dangerous for centuries once retired, ask Japan. As the worlds population continues to grow, the demand for power will also grow, but our ability to supply that power, may not be able to keep up.
