Words sneak in their nice double meanings without charging you for overtime

       Unintentional irony, I think, appeared on a recent broadcast which included the following sentence:

       "Local air pollution in China and India is fueling solar and                  wind development."

Yes, indeed, "fuel" is not only a metaphor in this formulation.   The unbridled use of oil and coal for power is accelerating growth of the cleaner energy to replace them.
