First coal, then natural gas? Apparently so.
A spokesman for the Environmental Defense Fund defended the Obama administration's Clean Power Plan on Wednesday, saying the benefits of carbon-reduction are "important" and "real" -- and hinting that they are just a start: methane emissions from natural gas may be targeted next.
"I think we can do more," EDF's Jeremy Symons told CSPAN's morning call-in show. "I think once we get on this path, we will find that we can do more faster. But it's a great start."
Under the Obama administration's Clean Power Plan, each state must decide how to rearrange their energy mix to achieve EPA-mandated, pollution-reduction targets. Basically, the plan will force states to abandon coal as an energy source in favor of the wind and solar industries, which are not as cost-effective or desirable in a free market.

It is never enough with these people. Time to take away their plastic kayaks, and give them hide-skinned oracles.
For better results they would like to murder half the people on the planet.
Who would have expected some envirowackos to use this as a spring board for even more regulations. Oh crap. Never mind...
Liberals worship and bow before the altar of a higher regulatory authority.
The only reason some people are alive is that it's against the law to kill them.
Time to revive the old western idea of a “Lynching Party”.
So long as energy is available to anyone outside the Ruling Class “we can do more.”
As they have done in 30 other nations in the past 90 years, the Socialists NEVER stop. They have to be crushed. They, like Muslims, allow for no dissent, and no amount of reality will stop them. They keep pushing, and most decent people slowly and eventually cave in, “to be nice”... until it all comes crashing down, and everyone is left in poverty and ruin.
These people should commit suicide.
“…I think we can do more.” We can, for example, exterminate most of the human race, except those “activists” like ourselves. Abortion is a good start...
No! No! No! Concrete life vests.

Giving society cheap, abundant energy ... would be the equivalent of giving an idiot child a machine gun. - Paul Ehrlich
They think only themselves can be trusted with cheap energy...
My plan would be to force the coal exhaust into large tanker trucks, transport it to Washington, DC and then release it.
Might I suggest that the environmentalists go somewhere to set up their proposed Utopia where the rest of us won’t be bothered while they’re freezing to death in the dark??? MMmmmkay, then...
The enviro-whako meant to say:
"I think we can do DESTROY more"
There. Fixed it.
I think their real goal is to wipe out humanity.
They hate all people and feel guilty for being alive.
The problem with their mental illness is that they want to take us all down with them.
Ten years ago this would’ve been a joke in the Onion.
