U.S. Supremes have spoken, April conference to provide clean coal's response

摘要

Given the Supreme Court's narrowly split decision that essentially classifies carbon dioxide as a pollutant (so do the planet a favor and skip exhaling every other breath, you CO2 emitting, insensitive human), it's inevitable that we will hear an increasingly loud drumbeat to limit coal usage in conventional power plants. The Supreme Court was focused on motor fuels, but its intent is clear. You really should consider joining us in St. Louis April 24-25 for "Coal's New Frontier," which is being sponsored by the McCloskey Group, Hill & Associates and your friends here at Energy Publishing. The subject is clean coal, but we'll tackle it a bit differently than seems to be the norm. We'll look at future prospects for clean coal technology, but we'll also focus pretty intently on the impact a burgeoning CCT industry might have on traditional markets - what utilities pay for coal and where salesmen will be marketing coal.
