It seems to me, that the push towards sustainable energy is primarily driven by a desire to reduce carbon dioxide emissions, in order to protect the environment from climate change. Is it not paradoxical, that the proposed solution is in itself, likely to be very damaging to the environment.

After all, what is it that are we trying to save?

our planet

our planet

Or what is left of it...

There is so much more to the planet and our environment than the content of the atmosphere.

i agree, but without an atmophere there is no life and with the wrong type of atmosphere life struggles,even when it is only slightly out of kilter, the coral reefs wich have the greatest diversity of marine life in the world are dying becouse the ocean tempretures have risen only a few degrees.
