RE: How Clean is "Green Energy?"
This is an important article, and we really are trapped in so many other aspects. For example, plastic bags are actually far greener in their production than reusable bags. The ecological toll it takes to make reusable bags means that you have to use it between 170 to several thousands of times just to offset the damage to the environment compared to single-use plastics.
There's a new angle, spin and problem in every feature of green energy we're putting out there... it's tough.
In the case of the reusable bag production, it is an apparent example of taking one step forward and two steps backwards. I've been of the view that reusable plastic is better than the disposal counterpart on its impact on the environment.
