50% of the electricity in the US is currently produced by coal. Thanks to the environmentalist zealots it is already next to impossible to get permitting for a power plant. They are already predicting roving blackouts as a matter of course in New York City and Los Angeles in the next few years as a result of the ridiculous polices mandated by the environmentalist left. We need to go in the opposite direction and build more coal fired power plants to insure the power supply.
If you are so opposed to coal then unplug your computer, light up some candles and pull yourself off the grid. Leave the rest of us out of it.
