We didn't realize for a long time, and we tried to deny it after that (and many still do), but the health and ecological costs of traditional fossil fuel energy and dirty tech are tremendous. What we think we save in 'cheap energy' is actually much less than what we pay for in reduced health and critical damage to important ecological systems and services
