The Electric Hum

This week I came across the chart that states how much energy is being produced by each type. The top three are Coal, Gas, and Nuclear. Recently the supreme court declared CO2 is a pollutant, what comes out of using coal as a power source. So with coal being the number one was of producing energy in the United States, it makes one think just how much pollutants are being pumped into the air we breath. Yes, coal is the cheapest and most effective way of producing energy, but it has also been in use for centuries. Solar cells are very expensive and are not all efficient at producing energy. The question is it necessary to ignore other methods of energy production? The best way to force improvements is through use, so until then bring your sun block.
