Not necessarily. Energy sources we consider as green nowadays have an immense toll on our environment which is massively understated. Take solar panels for example. They are supposed to produce energy without CO2 emissions, which is explicitly true, but implicitly they produce just as much CO2 as coal. The production of these panels isn't as sexy as it seems. Also they tend to degrade after a few decades and lose efficiency exponentially.
There are many other electricity generating solutions which have similar problems.
It's sad, but the least polluting source would be to go nuclear. I believe you and many others would change their mind after a little digging into the topic. I was rather sceptical in the beginning as well, but due to facts I had t o change my mind.
