    Going by what I’ve heard, it’s a growing movement to switch to green energy and the concern that burning any fossil fuels is damaging to the environment.

    A lot of these articles, while using completely valid science, are also worded in such a way to help convince people of the health concerns (no matter how small) to make the change, which also helps the movement. Sort of the “any little bit helps,” sort of thing.

      Isn’t electricity coming from burning fossil fuel in most of the country, if not all still, though? Also, thank you for the sane response.

        Yes, but electricity has the potential to be replaced by non fossil fuel sources.
