People have forgotten that you used to have to power wash buildings yearly in the Northeast from all the coal pollution. Natgas is NOT perfect, but it's about as good as fossil fuels can be - no tailings, no ash piles, easy to transport via pipeline.
I still think Offshore Wind is going to get us to the finish line though. It acts a lot more like baseload generation than onshore.
