This is the issue with fossil fuel technology in general. In short, we are not responsible enough. If we were fully responsible as people, we could do it. Once rich countries did it, poor countries would demand it, and they are especially unprepared. A bit of economic and political risk and voila, regions devastated.

There should be a simple rule: if you can't manage sewage and garbage, you can't handle fossil fuel technologies.
