No matter what type of energy we use to produce electricity, there will always be a negative side to it.
If we were to build wind farms, people would bemoan it when the wind stops blowing or slows down.
If we do solar power, they would complain when the days are cloudy and not enough electricity is being produced.
Coal is dirty but can be cleaned up.
Oil, well, there can always be a major spill somewhere.
IMHO, we should use our best resources to suit the area which is being served.
Hydroelectric is probably the best, cleanest and most efficient, but can only be used where geography lets it work.
