THAT is the biggest thing i was thinking about. how is that coal plant is going to generate less polution than our gas cars? lol but i did heard that obama is going to build more what you call those windmill fans? dunno tho

Time will tell what Obama will build. Wind farms take up huge amounts of real estate and have a HUGE impact on their environment (like taking away natural habitat is a good thing for the environment). That is another 1 plus feel good solution. What do you do in areas without a lot of space, or without high enough average winds to sustain the grid? Then the other option is solar power, which is the same exact issue. Lots of real estate, and doesn't work everywhere. High impact on the environment as well.

The most viable source we currently have to create power on a large scale is nuclear. Plain and simple. It is clean, low impact, has plenty of fuel, and is cheap.

The short answer to coal for electric cars and producing less pollution is that it doesn't. It simply shifts the pollution burden from the end user, to the producer, which makes people FEEL like they are making a difference, hence why I call it a feel good solution; because we FEEL like we are saving the environment. On top of that, it STILL uses gasoline.

The most promising future fuel technology is hands down the FCX Clarity powered by a nuclear grid. Hopefully, nuclear fusion will come along, but until then nuclear fission really is the next best thing.
