Developing economies are bound to pollute more until they can get to a point where they have enough available energy. Then they modernize. We did.

Those children do not do that work, they take coal, they are free for nearby people to burn the tandoor of their house. I know because I live hare. I'm from Indian coal mine jharkhand state.Our parents do that work and we go to government school to study, our house goes to the coal mine salary.

Coal, can't live with it, can't live without it

[namelesswreck]

Yes, because living without energy or jobs is better for these people 😒

[archstanton]

Just like the Centralia fire in Pennsylvania.

The difference is that everyone has abandoned Centralia but people don't have a choice in this village.

According to ABC, in 2021 relying on coal is “RACIST!” 💯🤣👎🏽

[federalisticnewyorkians]

So long as fossil fuels are cheaper that is what we should use.

[DRAKKENFIRE]

I’d like a second opinion from an unbiased independent source. Until green energy can be reliable, not everyone is going to give it up.

[josephsmith]

So please give India loans and green technology. If we produce solar energy and nuclear electricity green hydrogen fuel even poverty can be ended .

Ой, а куда подевались умирающие от коронавируса? Что, уже не сжигают трупы на улице на каждом шагу? Или изменилась повестка и сейчас журналистам дали другое задание?
