...Actually Binghi you can't see steam. It's invisible. Perhaps you're looking at water vapor.
Something else you can't see is CO2. Tons of it. 2.8 tons for every ton of coal burnt.
If you believe something is harmless just because it's invisible I really hope you don't run your car in a closed garage.
"...belch CO2 365 days of the year..."

Best thing for an arid Australia. CO2 is the best plant food available:
"...Increased levels of carbon dioxide (CO2) have helped boost green foliage across the world’s arid regions over the past 30 years through a process called CO2 fertilisation, according to CSIRO research..."
