Re: The whole "green" factor

I agree that just about anything we do detracts from the environment.
However, the level of damage is exactly what the 'green' label indicates.
I know very well that any 'green' manufactured product I buy is going to impact the environment. I also know that in many cases (most, hopefully) that buying 'green' will have LESS impact on the environment than not buying 'green'.

These stats on pollution caused by solar panel production are alarming. They are also useless on their own.
Please also list stats on how much pollution, and its affects, come from coal plants in China. Include the polution created to create the same amount of power that the solar panels will create over 20 years.

And Hydrogen, congratulations. It doesn't happen often, buy I am speechless.
