Are electronics bad for the environment?

Answer 1

Electricity itself is naturally occurring in the environment and does not do significant damage except in instances of lightning strikes. However, human methods of generating electricity to provide power do cause harm to the environment. To name a few, coal and natural gas burning power plants release carbon dioxide and toxins into the air, and nuclear power plants create harmful radioactive wastes.

Answer 2

Electric power as such isn't bad, but it has to come from somewhere. If it comes from a generator driven by the combustion of fossil fuels, then it's a bit bad. If it comes from a hydroelectric power plant and a big dam, then it's a bit bad too, as building the dam was massive change in nature. If it comes from nuclear power, that too takes a toll on nature.
