but it's always important to make sure we're not just replacing one pollutant for another,

Nothing is. An example, the UK cut all its big trees down to build sailing ships back in the 1800s for example and then went overseas to exploit forestry there. A good read on that is The Golden Spruce

Physicist Tom Murphy is doing an excellent 18 part critique on that now, he's up to part 10 which is excellent.
