Why do these articles always show photos of steam instead of emission sources?
Because lots of people aren't smart enough to make the link with a factory.
But the non smart people see smoke or steam and they think pollution.
I guess it's very effective if you want to rile up the "uneducated masses" but loose respect from everybody else.
Whatever works best for them.
IIRC there's still a significant number of people who believe airplanes leave 'chemtrails'. The education system is seriously failing people.
