Clean coal is a pipe dream

March 13, 2008 @ 19:50 By Gavin Webber Leave a Comment

I am not very well today. My back has been playing up for the last few days so I won’t be writing a long post.

Those of you who live in Victoria will know that we use Brown Coal to generate most of our electricity needs. There are those in the coal industry who are trying to bamboozle the general public with the promise of clean coal. What a crock and a diversion. Lets spend more money on proven renewable energy technology now and not wait for some pie in the sky technology that may not even get off the ground.

Listen here to what Dr Karl had to say about “Clean Coal”. He is a respected pop culture scientist in Australia and I believe what he has to say.

Happy listening!
