Silent but deadly! In one instance it stinks and with either you can't put it back once you turn it loose.

The eons of time and nature was good to us down here. It was not until we become civilized that destroying our habitat become fathomable or fashionable.

A guy here in Wisconsin made his own trash gasification plant, it was 5 years ago or so.  

A high pressure, high temperature vessel cooked  the trash, it broke down and gave off gas.  The gas heated the vessel.  The waste heat generated power.

There's your demonstration project, have him use coal instead of trash.  I bet he'd do it for a few 100 grand.  It would be all done in 6 months.

But that would stop the diversion.  The diversion of tax dollars better spent on incentives to homeowners and small businesses to invest in renewable energy and conservation.  The diversion of attention and political will.

Liked that SBD analogy.

In the end, it all comes down to biodiversity. Poison Darts--Protecting the biodiversity of our world

Hello Joseph:

Many thanks for your great work, your commitment and your expertise.  I read Hell and High Water and continue to follow your blog.

In your email push of May 9, 2008, you cited 16.9 cents/kWh for IGCC with CCS; and 15.2 cents/kWh for nuclear.  I looked through the CPUC May 6th presentation you included a link for, but couldn't find those numbers.  

I'm a pro bono intervenor at the Colorado Public Utilities Commission, working to reduce coal emissions, stop gasified coal, etc.  The citation would be very helpful.

Thanks again -- there's so much amazing information, and the people who are working together -- without pay, long hours -- to bring about the changes we need.  Unfortunately, Congress is a 'lagging indicator' -- in the words of political pundit Mark SHields -- so the people must lead.

And we must move away from fossil fuels.
