Issues pertaining to energy sources

I came across an article in Visual Capitalist.  Fossil fuels account for nearly 90 percent of global carbon dioxide emissions. Energy production does not only lead to carbon emissions. This can cause accidents and air pollution, which hurts human life.  Interestingly, coal produces 820 tons of CO₂ per gigawatt. Petrol produces 720 tons of CO₂ per gigawatt. Natural gas produces 490 tons of CO₂ per gigawatt. Biomass: 78-230 tons of CO₂ per gigawatt. Hydropower: 34 tons of CO₂ per gigawatt. Solar: 5 tons of CO₂ per gigawatt. Wind energy emits 4 tons of CO per gigawatt. Nuclear energy is 3 tons of CO₂ per gigawatt. More interestingly, air pollution and accidents from the extraction and combustion of coal fuels are responsible for about 25 deaths per terawatt-hour, according to Our World in Data.  Of solar, wind, and nuclear, there are only 0.03 deaths per terawatt-hour of electricity. What follows? We have a choice to keep harming ourselves or switch to the safer option for humans as soon as possible. I understand that there is no panacea that can instantly transform everything. But like any normal human being, it is beneficial to do everything in our power to switch to safer energy sources as quickly as possible. In my third book, 'Heir to the Dynasty,' I even stress this in general.
