Is it tho? Can we really have green energy production under capitalism? How can we achieve sustainability within a plan that is based on eternal growth?
Well that's not a productive question. No shit nothing is going to be perfectly green under an exploitive system.
On the objective basis of evaluating the technologies, it's green. That was the only statement I was making and if we reduce every discussion down to "capitalism bad :[", something Lemmy generally is already VERY aware of, we get nowhere in any of these discussions.
You're right.
