“We believe man-made CO2 is contributing to climate change and we’ve got our part to play,”

You're stupid.

I worked for a small electric utility in South Carolina that operated ONE nuclear power plant. The CEO decided that to take the company to the next level that he would build two new Westinghouse AP-1000 plants. They were shutting down "old" coal plants and the plan was to be in a position to "profit" in the future AND to take gov't $$ along the way.

The stock got hammered a few months ago when the partner decided to drop out of the contract (they'd own 1/3 of the two new plants just like they owned 1/3 of the original nuclear plant).

Recently, the South Carolina company was bought out by a Va utility which is going to finish the two new Nuclear plants after getting them for pennies on the dollar.

FORD is probably big enough to absorb an idiotic decision. Until electric cars have batteries with capabilities and range similar to a tank of gasoline, Americans are NOT going to buy them in large numbers, no matter how feel good the government tries to make them "feel."

The "in the know" leftists (like Hussein Obama and Hillary) want to shut down the coal plants to hurt the American economy, NOT to escape globull warming. They know they are lying, but why not? The average American used to listen to their morning propaganda broadcasts and believe every word CNN told them. BUT that is slowly changing.

The idiot CEO of the South Carolina company was a bean counter, he had NO engineering knowledge at all. To listen to him speak was like listening to Gore or Obama talk about a technical subject. I left the company when they were still putting up walls at the new "plant."

I wonder if the Camel-Jockeys were laughing...

...when the Ford Flivver rolled off into the Kalmyk steppe.

The only thing that doesn't change... is change.
