carbon tax passed esi the next market darling., page-12

Greenies seem to think gas is cleaner than coal.

How wrong they are.

A good ''cradle to grave analogy ;

If CSG fugitive emissions are taxed,,, csg will go under.

If you include the enviro potential for disasters, v dropping a few lumps of coal on the side of the road,,, the greenies will close csg down.

Remember methane leakage is 25 times more potent than carbon dioxide when it comes to greenhouse effect.

This article is short and to the point.

Coal is environmentally safer and much cheaper than gas when you take EVERYTHING into account.

It will be cleaned up and used up,,, over the next coupla hundred years. It will take that long for ALL the alternative renewable energy potentials to be ''in place''

So what do we do in the interim ?

Pragmatically obvious you would have to think ?
