More From Charles Duhigg

Letting the perfect be the enemy of the good is one of the reasons we have a coal-dependent infrastructure, with the resulting environmental impact that all of us can see. i suspect environmentalists, through their opposition of nuclear power, have caused more coal plants to be built than anybody. and those coal plants have emitted more radioactive material from the coal than any nuclear accident would have.

The trains carrying coal to power plants are death trains. coal-fired power plants are factories of death.

Coal is a portable climate. it carries the heat of the tropics to labrador and the polar circle; and it is the means of transporting itself whithersoever it is wanted. watt and stephenson whispered in the ear of mankind their secret, that a half-ounce of coal will draw two tons a mile, and coal carries coal, by rail and by boat, to make canada as warm as calcutta, and with its comfort brings its industrial power.

It's not as though we can keep burning coal in our power plants. coal is a finite resource, too. we must find alternatives, and it's a better idea to find alternatives sooner then wait until we run out of coal, and in the meantime, put god knows how many trillions of tons of co2 that used to be buried underground into the atmosphere.

Today, about 40 percent of america's carbon pollution comes from our power plants. there are no federal limits to the amount those plants can pump into the air. none. we limit the amount of toxic chemicals like mercury, and sulfur, and arsenic in our air and water, but power plants can dump as much carbon pollution into our atmosphere as they want. it's not smart, it's not right, it's not safe, and i determined it needs to stop.
