March 4, 2009, Richard Morse states that coal is the largest growing source of energy and that regulation and policy are beginning to play a larger role in the economy of coal power. Morse also discusses the heavy reliance on coal by developing countries and the need to understand and evaluate all mitigation options.

Im partial to reasearch in sodium thorium reactors. WMDs are impossible with thorium. the reactors can be shut down in minutes not weeks, and thorium is far more abundant than uranium.

Nice presentation, says it like it is with political reality and all. But his solutions can't get us anywhere near stabilising the climate...so we are doomed.

Yer not so much coal but all fossil fuel is an enemy of mankind. How does the coal industrys plans fit in with the cutting down of polluting fossel fuel usage, and adoption of greener power production? ( whitch once adopted will become cheeper).
