The only time renewables get any attention is when its good for marketing. @CPV: Because money rules and at the moment fossil fuels are cheap while renewables are incredibly expensive.

How sad!!! Our current governor who replaced Kathleen Sebelius is bucking for political gain by not vetoing the plant. Clearly, he hasn't any desire to do the right thing by our state by making this decision to support the coal plant construction. Wish we had Kathleen back to protect the environment.

Burning coal is dirty and it pollutes. How we have such short term memory. Wasn’t it just yesteryear during the industrial revolution that coal was the main source of energy? Doesn’t anybody remember the mess it made then, and how long it took to clean it up? Look at Russia, there are still towns that use coal and I have seen the results first hand. Everything is black with soot, the snow is even black. What is wrong with people? Are we that desperate to hang on to our old polluting ways or is it the most just really don’t care. Wake up, If not for your own wake up for your children’s children. You or I might not be around long enough to see a big difference, but our kids will. Clean coal, yeah right!

I'm with you on the clean coal. And I've been telling people for years that our dependence on foreign oil is a national security issue as much as it is an energy issue. Though this last year is the first time the politicians actually used the phrase "national security issue" that I'm aware of. Maybe they're finally listening to me :) We must conserve. And we must explore utilizing all resources better (including wind, solar, nuclear, natural gas and our own untapped oil capacity). Had a great Earth Day here in Kansas. I even wore my green shirt yesterday! Energy is a difficult problem. I’m with you on the clean coal.
