How are we going charge our EVs like the GM Volt if Obama makes new coal power plant non-viable options?
Devon asked:
From the San Francisco Chronicle and US News and World Report: “Barack Obama declared war on America’s coal-fired plants, pledging to regulate the industry so aggressively that “it will bankrupt them because they’re going to be charged a huge sum for all that greenhouse gas that’s being emitted.”
Wind, natural gas, and solar are fine — but they won’t meet short-term needs. Obama is not terribly supportive of nuclear, and I don’t think his tax policy would encourage the building of nuclear power plants — that leaves coal for the near term — Obama is the person who says he will put coal OUT OF BUSINESS — it is HIS words.

does the energy from a power plant originally come from the sun?
dancinem07 asked:
I know that a power plant burning coal originally gets its energy from the sun, but How did the energy come from the sun? When did the energy come from the sun?

Does this article lead you to believe we need to ban the production of new coal power plants?

Ok first of all, how can someone possibly say it’s either coal or nothing? Because that’s is just not true, there are many ways to produce electrical power. And perhaps a ban on coal power plants that don’t sequester ALL there emmisions is more reasonible.
Please do contact your represenatives in government on all levels, I think that’s a great idea because when someone is passionate enough about an issue to actually take the time to contact them they know that there are many more that feel the same way but just haven’t gotton in touch with them to tell them.
