Sure, and there's no reason we can't have both, that's my point.

I live in an area with ~20 coal plants in a 15-minute radius and, let me tell you, a dirty bomb would probably have been cleaner.

Ok I’m curious. What sort of industrial area needs 20 coal power plants in a 15 minute ?drive?

Major aluminium production and mining , chinese crypto hub ?
