“In other words, EPA is shutting down enough generating capacity to power every home in Washington, Oregon, California, Idaho, Nevada, Arizona, Utah, Montana, Wyoming, Colorado, New Mexico, North and South Dakota, Nebraska, Kansas, Oklahoma, Minnesota, Iowa, Missouri, Arkansas, and Louisiana.”

There is no replacement any time soon for this power grid loss.

Rolling brownouts, or total regional winter blackouts, will become the norm;

Electric car owners will ave to chose between charging the car or keeping the lights on;

Hospitals will have to chose between keeping drugs refrigerated or the lights on during surgery;

Charging personal computers and gadgets will pass into history;

The list goes on ...

When I was a boy the argument was anthracite or bituminous

Ask a 30 something which they would chose and the answer would be, “Say what?”

40 years form now, tell a 30 something that when you were a boy cell phones were almost a foot long and weighed pounds, and the answer will be, “What’s a cell phone?”

Most of them would probably choose bi-sexual. :>} They wouldn’t hear past “bi-”.

All true and those smart meters that have been installed in all of our houses? Well at some point comrade you will be allotted so many KW’s per month and when you max out no more electricity for you til the first of the month. Or even better we will all be rationed to 12 hours of electricity per day. After that its lights out.

Bottom line if you are not preparing to install some type of off grid alternative electrical system prepare to eat your peas.
