Lol, ever seen a coal disposal plant? Not even nuclear disasters look as bad as your average coal disposal plant. Any green or even "green" solution is leagues better than our current fossil infrastructure.

Also way to pick some of the worse solutions, windmills are generally just bad and e-cars are largely just car companies going "car bad for life on earth? No...it's not...na~ah...see! Totally good now! :)", it's quite literally kicking a can down the road, or rather hiding from the gaze of the rich.

The problem with cars isn't necessarily that they're dirty, it's that we have soo god damn fucking many of em EVERYWHERE, which amplifies all of their small issue to such a degree it makes it a leading cause of emissions among others issues. Like once we get to car infrastructure, that's when it really takes a nose dive. It's a wonder anything still even works...

In case of solar panels, it's honestly not that bad, once we cut back the elephant in the room, makes plenty of space of solar production. Also nuclear should be the end all be all, and don't give me no shit about waste storage, countries like Finland are volunteering to be used as storage, because it generates business for em. As long as you don't store it in an old salt mine (like what the actual fuck were the Germans thinking there???), again it's not that bad, especially compared to the elephant in the room... I'd prompt ya to look at a coal disposal plant again.
