The 100's of billions wasted on wind and solar power could have paid to come up with technology to make coal burn as clean and natural gas, and the left over fly ash should have been put back in the same hole it came out of.
With the drought in the west, Hydro is being drastically curtailed
I dont see wind and solar as the big salvation, and nuclear is still unpopular
We have a 250 year supply of coal, we should be cleaning it up and using it!
