Imagine if that area had to be strip mined, factories set up, and coal power plants built. There's nothing clean or green about renewable energy. Californians and Westerners in general should be thankful they just have to deal with things like battery fires and not the raw material extraction and solar panel production, because that's what is happening in other countries instead.
And no I'm not trolling, this sort of whitewashing out the ugly parts have contributed a lot of damage and waste from things like "recyclable plastic" which weren't actually recyclable, but everyone felt good it in a green bin next to grease soaked pizza boxes that weren't recyclable either.
