    Purchasing and producing renewable energy is the same thing. If you purchase it, somebody else is producing it for you.

      But they are not even using said energy themselves… that is like throwing my garbage right on the street but paying someone in India to pick some garbage over there (for at lot less)… if you are my neighbour, would you think it’s fine?

      I don’t need google “producing” clean energy… I want them CONSUMING clean energy… as it is, they are pollution just as much as ever (more every year) but they pretend to be clean by throwing money at it… at the end of the day, the planet keeps getting polluted and the climate nicely on its way to cooking us alive
