“taking center stage with wind, solar and clean coal power”

“Clean Coal” was a term developed by pollsters and political hacks because it polled better than “dirty, gonna rip up your lungs, has covered the city of Pittsburgh in a thick layer of ash, Coal” It is unfortunate, to say the least, that a “green” website propagates lies like those of “clean coal.” But it also goes to show just how effective the lobbying interests have been.

Biomass? What? Combustion engines have to go. It doesn’t matter what you fuel them with … not to mention, the above feature implies that we’re cutting down trees (presumably, they will be replanted) for energy …. interesting, but how effective have the energy-hungry peoples of the world been at enacting real sustainability? Don’t you think that if we cut down trees for energy we’ll do so at completely unsustainable levels — consequently redoubling our damage to the environment by ravaging our natural sources of carbon-eaters?

This website has some cool stuff. But take its facts with a serious grain of salt. I haven’t seen much of anything that my professors would call “scientific knowledge” lurking around here.

Not till then will we see the costs, and the ropes, come down.
