"Bad for the environment" is relative.
The problem here is that they tell you:
- We're building renewables which deliver super clean and cheap energy
- CO2 is the root of all evil
Then, they force you to use an LED which uses less energy (which is clean and cheap, no?) but contains a lot more chemicals and rare earths, so in a number of ways seems less "environmentally friendly". This seems contradictory and half-assed.
