Come back, Dennis Kucinich, all is forgiven and we need you. At least you had a grasp of the true nature of coal and did not pander to anyone about it. Hillary is running off about mountaintop removal and now promising coal plants:
Right away I have been advocating that we fund 10 large scale carbon capture and storage projects that will utilize a range of coal types and power plant types and storage locations because it's imperative that we do everything we can to get to a technology that enables us to use clean coal.
And so is Obama:
We could be investing in renewable sources of energy, and in clean coal technology, and creating up to 5 million new green jobs in the bargain, including new clean coal jobs. And we could be doing it all for the cost of less than a year and a half in Iraq.
Even Ralph Nader is even looking good these days. Or maybe the Green Party. Via Solveclimate
