<<What's the cost-benefit analysis?>>

Coal burning plant scrubbers......cost (very expensive)
To my and your atmosphere.........benefit (less SO2, NO and CO2)

There you have it......

Are you more concerned with big utility revenues or your neighbors and your health and the well being of your state's wildilfe?

Vermont Attorney General William Sorrell said: "These old coal-fired generating plants should be forced to live by the same rules as our power plants in Vermont. Acid rain has taken enough of a toll on our citizenry and on the plant and fish life in the Green Mountains and the Adirondacks. Cleaning up our air and water is a long-term project. We need to take significant steps now to prevent even greater harm to public health and the environment in the future -- cutting back on the protections contained in the Clean Air Act is 180 degrees in the wrong direction."
