Our principal goal should be to mitigate problems that are global in scale, such as climate change, biodiversity loss, virus transmission, and invasive species. In any case, when we switch from fossil fuels to renewable energy, we reduce but do not eliminate environmental damage. We need off-grid and on-grid solutions.
