At least they aren't telling people to collect wood from forests to burn ( then charging them for it ) like they are in poland. Great job on the sanctions you bunch of mongoloids. Meanwhile we are economically melting down in Canada as well. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 43599441 United States 06/13/2022 02:35 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Temporary return of coal plants? That is going to cost an insane amount of money. Who the hell would want to do that without getting insane money? Come on back for 3 months then you are on your own. Plus there are very few trained on the plants now. It is going to take months to get it back on line. This is a big good luck with that... no way no how. Quoting: continuity I don't see that you are correct. Coal is cheap. The technology is simple. The power plants are in place. |

The power plants are in place. Coal WAS cheap. The Green Monsters did one hell of a job of bankrupting mining companies and getting mines closed around the world. The only major buyer is China and they’ll not take LESS. Russian and Ukrainian coal is off the table for a moment. Supply is way down and prices are rising considerably as demand ticks up. Mines aren’t easy to restart and restart. It takes time. Then what? How many companies are looking to invest on restarting mining operations (under all the new, costly, and prohibitive regulations) on a ‘temporary’ basis. It’s not like they’ll be viewed as ‘heroes’ after/if all of this calms down. Hell, look at what happened to the unvaxxed ‘essential workers.’ Last Edited by Larphillips on 06/13/2022 02:48 PM “A person is smart, people are stupid.” “Nobody knows until everybody knows” |

Try to buy and restore old coal burning furnaces for your home like I have. It is now gas, but can use coal also. I even have a coal shoot through the basement window. Back in the day, I lived in a very huge apartment complex and I use to watch in amazement our German janitor with huge muscles, shovel the coal in it's mouth from a large coal pit. Heated the entire place just fine. |

Quoting: JustmeTX They can make it as clean as they want to spend money to achieve. Zero emission coal power is not that hard to accomplish. Just takes money. It's called scrubber, not zero emission , takes sulphur and mercury out of smoke - primary problem of coal powerplants |
