There is no such thing as "clean coal". People who talk about it, such as in TV commercials, are just trying to fool you with a lot of nonsense.
Burning coal always produces carbon dioxide, sulfur dioxide, nitrogen dioxide, sulfur trioxide, and carbon monoxide, and those are all dangerous pollutatants and generators of acid rain.
In addition, most of the smokestack gases listed above are strong greenhouse gases and they trap head in the atmosphere. That contributes to climate change, thunderstorms, tornadoes, hurricanes, and the enlargement of deserts.
pretty much devastating.
Elmer's glue is not bad for the environment.
Some materials like plastic are bad for the environment.
by less combustion of fuels, at least complete combustion of with filtering of toxic substances which can act as carcinogens in your lungs.

No it is not bad
it is bad because
they lived in a bad environment
Incomplete combustion is most commonly caused by lack of oxygen. Partial oxidation can lead to many contaminants being released into the environment.
Anything which consumes energy has an effect on the environment. An automobile which only transports one person is inefficient, unless it is very small. It does not matter where the energy comes from, it is the consumption of energy to move one person from place to place which is bad for the environment. Electric cars normally get their energy from the electrical grid, which is primarily supplied by coal-burning generating plants. Building more coal fired plants to meet the demand for electricity would be bad for the environment. However, they are better for the environment than internal combustion engine cars burning gasoline, as some electricity is renewably generated (wind, solar, hydro, etc).
