I’m not a gas-proponent in any shape or form but this is at the very least an insufficient response. All forms of energy and infrastructure have accidents - a cost in blood. You could argue that gas has a higher total cost of life than other energy forms, perhaps. But it’s not like installing rooftop solar, maintaining windmills or dams are free from accidents. The safest energy in terms of deaths per Wh is fission IIRC. If you’re sitting on statistics that belongs to this discussion, please share it.
- fragmede 3y agoI'm responding to the notion that it's strange that people might not want to die. I don't have stats on the number of people that don't, apologies, I hate coming from a place where I have don't have data to support my views, but still, I imagine it's common enough not to be considered strange.
