Of course not. Like everything else that you dig out of the ground.
But if you burn it in combustion engines or fuel cells, it must be cleaned before. You don't want to kill your engines.
The point is the "other stuff" coming out of the ground is still very likely pollution.
So we trade one polluting mining operation for another, but we get a fuel that burns cleaner and doesn't produce greenhouse gasses.
Look, I'd much prefer we switch to solar/hydrogen, but we can't say that X is bad because X isn't perfect, especially when the alternative is far worse.
