Green Energy's dirty secrets

[El Gato + 254]

Non-recycable? Say it ain't so! That's blasphemy to the true believers!  Child slave labor? It's ok as long as you are comfortable saving the environment in your E-car.

Junk opinion article.

However, there is a valid point hidden in that pro-oil propaganda. 

We should not try to emulate China or underdeveloped nations.

Tell this to the China cheerleader traitor Ecocharger.

Green energy can be produced in OECD nations.

You should also realize that offloading pollution and labour burden onto poor nations is not new or unique to EV's.

Pretty good chance that all of the clothing you are wearing and the computer you are reading this on was not made in the USA.  Are you comfortable supporting child slave labour?

Nope. I buy American as much as I can.

But can you?  Did you?

Look at the labels on your clothes right now.  What brands are your phone and computer?

The article is not saying anything new - just linking to the report which repeats what has been known for well over a decade now but simply ignored by the many proponents of green energy. There is little hope that activists will pay any attention.
