EPA set to strike key blow against coal?

The EPA and the Green goons really want this country to slide back into the 19th Century. Cutting coal will make everything that depends on electricity very expensive, or impossible to get and use. Thousands of jobs will be lost and the other forms of electric power generation will not be able to keep up. The natural gas alternative is not fully up to the load just yet. Even if it were, the EPA would find some reason to keep it down.

    CO2 is not a pollutant. It's a necessary component of the environment for life to exist.

    Environmentalism about CO2 is a religion, first proposed in the 1890's that has never had any proof, direct or inferred that it affects one way or the other, the planets temperature. It is not and never has been science.

    It now is tool to further destroy the US. If you completely stopped every CO2 emission in the US, it wouldn't make a dent in the amount emitted by China, India, and the rest of the developing world.

    Actually, in some ways I'd kinda like us to slide back to the 19th century (when they used a lot of coal...)

    There are new technologies being tested in Asia and Australia that are promising to significantly reduce coal use and emissions from coal power plants. Sorry but can't reveal more until testing is complete.

    I also recently saw test results from a catalyst in diesel truck engines that cut CO2 output by 40%, but it's like pulling teeth to get anyone to be open minded about using fuel additives.
