Life Cycle Analysis
I post mostly on academic and political topics related to my own research on environmental change, archaeology, and human interaction with the environment. Geographically, I range across the Americas to Africa and Europe. My brother lives in Japan and so I do have some interest in Asia, although I have yet to visit.

I know it's meant in fun, but I wish it ended with a web link to some information that addresses the actual issues with coal. As it stands, the video is an opportunity for industry spokestools to say that environmentalists just don't understand the advanced technology they're going to invent any day now.
Point well taken. The technology is not all that advanced or effective. Much of it goes back to the early 1980's when scrubbers started to be installed and so forth. Capturing the CO2 emissions would make coal more costly than switching to alternative sources.
