when they run on batteries..
charged by coal fired power stations.

have we become so dumb and unquestioning?.

Wouldn't green energy really be coal powered too? Those wind turbines and hydro generators were made in factories that use gas and coal for power. Just my thoughts

@Stargazer89 refined coal its called coke. It is extremely clean and when burned its so pure and burns so hot emissions are next to nothing. We have known this for 200yrs dont take my word of it check it out yourself. We have massive deposits of the type of coal. I agree with your statement. People use words like "all natural" incorrectly to mislead or misinform everything we use and make comes from organic chemistry.

@PhluorescentLeech that's something the greenies can't seem to grasp; coal and oil are extremely clean when burned hot enough; waste oil burners are actually one the the cleanest power/heat sources that exist. Even wood burning is carbon neutral

@wildbill83 why would people repeat or believe everthing they hear without checking references. It makes the internet a dangerous place.

@PhluorescentLeech "programming"/mental conditioning perhaps, they've lost the ability to think for themselves

cia, kgb, stasi, etc. tried it for years... they have nothing on CNN, MSNBC, BBC, The WP, The NWT, etc. apparently... 🤔

@wildbill83 it wouldn't be puzzled if they didn't have the ability its the lack of desire.

@PhluorescentLeech

emissions are next to nothing

Except that every atom of carbon becomes a molecule of CO2.
