There are only 20 coal plants in the American West without retirement dates. They’ve generated as much climate pollution as 15 million typical passenger cars. Sammy_Roth reports:

After 10 years of fires, droughts and storms in California, the state’s residents are panicking about climate change.Advertisement

Not far from Dry Fork is Gillette Energy Complex, the site of four coal plants majority-owned by South Dakota-based Black Hills Corp. The coal-burning Laramie River Station near Wheatland, Wyo., is owned by several utilities, including Basin Electric Power Cooperative.

Sammy_Roth Climate pollution? You meant CO2 plant food.

Sammy_Roth ..rather burn coal than burn wood..just saying

Sammy_Roth Here’s USA footprint

Sammy_Roth Climate pollution is a liberal wet dream. Why not report on reality?

Sammy_Roth Liberals want everything to be electric. More expensive, inferior product - easier to control and tax.

Sammy_Roth China and Japan have hundreds of coal plants under construction. In large part, because coal is a cheap and reliable source of fuel.

Sammy_Roth Meanwhile in China..

Sammy_Roth How else do you expect to charge all those Teslas, cellphones, and computer?

Sammy_Roth We need more nuclear power.

China and Japan are building coal plants like crazy because it's a cheap and reliable fuel.

When will our left-wing newspaper point out the dependency the two countries that account for a 1/3rd of the world's population have on coal. Tell them you think they should freeze in winter or heat using dung. And then get called racist.

Stream Selena Gomez to save America of coal

and power outages will be coming to California more often as a result, guaranteed

I could not figure out how to post a reply... sigh...oh well...

Thank you for this article. I want to read it later when I have time.

They tell us we only have 12 years left, then they take our money. Ten thousand years ago there was an ice age, the climate is always changing. We're not stupid.

More winning! Hope all the coal miners who voted for Trump enjoy all their permanent time off.

Good. It's time to move on to something better.

Lecture China and India and tell them they should freeze. Pretty racist.

Climate change is a hoax propaganda fake news liars

Tell the truth
