Madrum,

Our environmental lobby groups are really starting to worry me. It has really become a religion followed on blind faith, rather than any logical understanding of the what is involved in the processes. I don't the believe the NIMBYs get a look in at the environmental rallies any more. They have been kicked out by the BANANAs as NIMBYs are seen as too conservative, especially in NSW. (see ref below for translations)
My nephew, the other day said to me, that to some people I work for the devil, as I am in the fossil fuel industry. My come back was, "you are the devil, as you are the consumer", he looked confused for some reason?
I really do hope that UCG can differentiate itself from CSG, but to many in the Green movement, it will do no good, as Bananaism runs to the extreme. Also the name UCG has problems. It contains a four letter word starting with "C". Maybe UOMG would be a better sell. As in "Underground Organic Material Gassification"? It will then be a bio-reactor and we can then have it certified as organic, where no pesticides were used in its manufacture nor any birds killed, just to compare it to wind, as we would only be producing hot air. Though I am not sure which side of the argument will produce the most hot air by the end of the day?
To get back to your main point, public education needs to be at the fore front of any planning and CO2 and disposal needs to be front and centre, to show how small a carbon foot print UOMG can be.

This is what i have been saying in my posts, UCG vs CSG and the one about Gas on channel 9 this morning with Ross Greenwood, Dont think a lot of people understand the difference between the two, and that might be the thorn in our side, The QLD gov and CNX have to push this as a viable resource and back it up with the Data from the ISP report to try and split them apart
As the green brigade , cant see the difference due to the green glasses that they ware
and yes we are all devils as the world need energy even the Green movement, they would be the first to cry Wolf if we had no Gas to heat there homes in the winter time lol, nice come back there Dicko, love it

Just my thoughts
