#1 Coal accounts for approximately 50% of our energy. Coal represents 44% of the tonnage shipped by RRs' and 21% of their gross revenue.

#5 Hmmm, "There have been things that happened that have been BLAMED on climate change".

So Obama wants to "Do something about things BLAMED on climate change">

That's the worst "Reason" to do anything at all.

I BLAME Obama, should we therefore "Get rid of HIM"?

#6 [ANOTHER MIGHTY WORLD-'ROUNDING HOMER SIMPSONIAN "DOH"! here].

Obvious thingys are obvious.

That being said, a "WAR ON COAL" = "WAR ON JOBS" AS LONG AS OUR FUTURE OWG-NWO [aka Space Govt-Order] + US + ALIGNED FAIL TO DEV JUSTIFIED
"SPACE/STAR FREE MARKETS" FOR ORDINARY EARTHICANS = CONSUMERS/HUMANS, INDUSTRY, + OF COURSE THE QUEEN'S FERENGI, ETAL. VEE "GREEN TECHS".

As things stands, the only thing that that the Fed + OWG is accomplishing is MASSIVELY EXPANDING THE SIZE OF [already] BIG[GER GOVT] TO NEVER BEFORE SEEN HEIGHTS.

ARE WE MISSING THE SPACE SHUTTLE PROG, I.E. USA GOING BACK TO THE MOON + MARS + BEYOND, NOW???

I think we are.

#8 "begin the process of shutting down the conventional coal plants"

Go for it, asshole.

In fact, start with D.C. - their electricity is produced by coal.

Think of all the ~~CO2~~ hot air we could prevent.
