The level of ignorance (not a perjorative term mind you) out there in the popular culture has long reached super-scary levels. And it just gets better!
“I think we should use more electricity” <-— actual answer by our “man on the street” when questioned about domestic energy policy. People just think the stuff comes out of the wall outlet all by itself.
Something like half of all electric power generated in the US is from coal. Just as vital, it is reasonably priced, easy to produce and doesn’t need to be imported. The whole global warming, C02 nonsense foisted is just way too convenient in my estimation. It’s just one big con, and baby, it’s cold outside!

You can say that again! China is number 1 for coal production and is heavily dependent on it for electricity production. They are currently experiencing troubles meeting their demand.
China Facing Electricity Shortages On Higher Coal Prices We are number 2 for coal production. Do we want to screw ourselves with an Obama mandate to kill the coal/electricity producing industry?
