Coal itself has never been my objection. MidAmerican is building a new 'supercritical' coal burner in the midwest, which will create electricity with a lower environmental burden. Edit: a Canadian concern is also investing in SuperCritcal coal technology at a plant, but I forget which. In a conference call, they mention this appearing as an untested technology in North America, but suggest the Japanese have a wealth of experience with it. Edit: EPCOR Genesee Phase 3 project, presentation corporate.bmo.com IMO, MidAmerican appears to be choosing to do the 'right' thing regardless of EPA regulation choices. My UCL/MidAmerican ethical investing query Message 19542531 There are 'cool' technologies to convert coal into all kinds of useful things, yet we americans 'apply some glue' to make it eligible for synfuel tax credits, and then burn it.
