Green and Clean Energy Aren’t the Same

Wait — did you know renewable, green, and clean energy aren’t the same thing? ⚡🌱

In this Short, Maynard Okereke breaks down the real differences between these commonly confused energy terms. From solar and wind to nuclear and hydropower, not all “clean” energy is as green or renewable as it seems.

🌿 Renewable energy comes from sources that naturally replenish, like wind or solar.

♻️ Green energy is renewable and has minimal environmental impact — so not all renewables qualify.

🚫 Clean energy produces low or no emissions — but it might not be renewable (think: nuclear).

Knowing the difference helps us make smarter choices for the planet. 💡
