We used to have power plants which would inject sulfur dioxide into the atmosphere for free, yet the lefties shut them all down because sulfur dioxide was a 'dangerous pollutant'.

It was part of the acid rain problem. When sulfur dioxide combines with water it makes sulfurous acid.

Over here there have been so many clean energy projects that have expended millions without producing results beneficial to the economy or the environment.....and this year the Dems are campaigning once again to try again.

South Point Wind Farm is in shambles, an eyesore; the Tidal Energy experiments spend big bucks for a dollar's worth of energy; Puna's Geothermal plant worked but was protested for the sulfurous fumes it produced, by the same people that demand a non oil based energy method of production; electric energy production from burning waste was denied....the same waste that fills our landfills beyond capacity; burning bio fuels at the old cane plantation mills is also kapu (taboo) since it pollutes, the same sort of emissions from those mills that once fueled the Hawaiian economy; solar energy panels system are unaffordable with high maintenance costs and unreliable.

It's a joke that goes on and on while Madame Pele laughs in their faces.
