How Deadly Is Your Kilowatt? We Rank The Killer Energy Sources

Everyone’s heard of the carbon footprint of different energy sources, the largest footprint belonging to coal because every kWhr of energy produced emits about 900 grams of CO2. Wind and nuclear have the smallest carbon footprint with only 15 g emitted per kWhr, and that mainly from concrete production, construction, and mining of steel and uranium.. ..WHO(World Health organisation) has called biomass burning in developing countries a major global health issue (WHO int)…But an energy’s deathprint, as it is called, is rarely discussed….and Environment Minister Hunt now wants to burn native forest biomass to reduce(?) emissions?!?
