Another Executive Order and the WAR ON COAL CONTINUES!

[Old Rocks]

Hmmmm............ I see your problem. Also eliminates solar.

OK, let's break down the problem into it's parts. You would like to eliminate, or at least alleviate, your electric bill. But the physical postition of your house prevents that.

So, do you have a lot of neighbors in the same position? Would they also like to do that?

Here is a WAI (wild ass idea) for you. Form a coop, find a warehouse in a good location, then see Solar City about using that roof to generate electricity for the coop. Don't know if they do that at present, but it might be a good addition to their business model. That would freeze your electrical bills at their present levels for the next 20 years, after which you would own the solar panels. Just a WAI, but sometimes they work.

Oh More bull shit from crick...

Its not so much the number as it is the destructive nature and circumvention of the legislative branch who told Obama NO, that he had not right to do what it is he is doing. In fact congress said that there was no AGW issue.. but Obama didn't like that answer so he went around them again.

And many of those "jobs" are now dying as subsidies are been withdrawn... Even so , those numbers are just 5% of the jobs were loosing to mining and related industries for no other purpose but to line the pockets of liberals and socialists who want control...

So, the liberals and socialistes are the only ones investing in alternative energies. I guess they are just better capitalists than you 'Conservatives'.

New Hampshire, USA -- Today The Solar Foundation (TSF), a non-profit organization that seeks to further the understanding of solar energy through research and public education, released its 4th National Jobs Census report, which shows remarkable growth in the U.S. labor market as it pertains to solar energy employment.
In total there were 142,698 solar workers in the U.S. as of November 2013. A solar worker is defined as someone who devotes at least 50 percent of his or her work to solar-related activities. This is a 20 percent increase over 2012 figures and ten times higher than the national average employment growth rate, which was 1.9 percent. "This is our most comprehensive [report] yet," said Andrea Luecke, Executive Director & President of The Solar Foundation, explaining that collecting the data involved making more than 74,000 phone calls and sending out more than 11,000 emails.
Solar project developers were the big winners in terms of job growth rate. In 2012 there were almost 8,000 solar workers who defined themselves as project developers whereas in 2013 that number jumped to more than 12,000, a 52 percent uptick. According to Luecke, the large increase reflects the huge number of utility-scale projects that were under construction in 2013.
As has been long-predicted, because solar project costs have dropped so dramatically in recent years, the industry added the the largest number of jobs in installation. Just under 70,000 people are employed in the solar installation business, a 21 percent increase over 2012. TSF predicts that 2014 will again add 21 percent more jobs, a number that would bring the industry solar installation total to more than 84,000 by this time next year. CEO Lyndon Rive said that SolarCity added 2,000 "highly-distributed" jobs in 2013. Solar installation jobs are "not in any central hub," he explained, as is the case with other industries such as finance in NYC or high-tech in Silicon Valley. "We are in 14 states," he said. "Growth for the next 10 years in solar is going to be very, very exciting," Rive added. "You can't outsource these jobs."
Silly Billy just can't get anything right.

Obama Halts Federal Coal Leasing Citing Climate Change..

Well the fucktard has done it again...One more worthless EO to try and kill Coal Mines. The EO halts all new leases and stops lease renewals. This Socialist piece of crap cant get out of office fast enough for me.

The U.S. temporarily halts coal leasing on federal lands to reassess its policy in light of global warming.

The Obama administration on Friday brought a temporary halt to new coal mining leases on federal lands while it conducts a three-year review meant to bring coal leasing in line with U.S. climate policy.

The moratorium comes just days after Obama said in his State of the Union Address that he would push to change the way the government manages its oil and coal resources to reflect the costs they impose on both taxpayers and the planet. The moratorium takes place immediately, but does not halt coal mining and production currently underway.

“How do we manage the program that is consistent with our climate change objective? There is no short answer,” Interior Secretary Sally Jewell said during a news conference. “It is also clear that we need to take into account the science we have now on the environment and climate change.”

About 40 percent of all the coal produced in the U.S. comes from mines on federal public lands, mainly in the West. As of the end of 2014, there were 308 active coal mining leases on more than 464,000 acres of public lands in Wyoming, Utah, New Mexico, Montana and Colorado, with an additional 10,500 acres in Kentucky, Alabama and West Virginia.

Burning coal and other fossil fuels for electricity is the largest single source of human-caused greenhouse gas emissions driving climate change, accounting for about 31 percent of all U.S. greenhouse gases.

I think the bigger issue is.... why do we have "Federal Lands"?

Since when did we trade in our Republic for a modern Feudal system?

Ever bother to read the history of this nation? Or do you just mindlessly parrot the idiocies of the far rightwingnut assholes?

 

[Billy_Bob]

Silly left wing fools who do as they are told and spout the lies and deceptions of the left wing.

History is clear about the enviro-marxists and socialists. They want power and control. And they will do anything to get it, including killing millions of people and nations..

Who unleashed Climatism?

I'm guessing you didn't read much more than the Drudge headline...

A full review of the federal coal program has occurred twice in the past, during the Nixon and Reagan administrations, and a coal leasing moratorium occurred during both reviews.

Those fucktards, those socialist pieces of crap...!! Why Billyboob is so mad he's gonna dig up the dead presidents body and have sexual relations with them...

How about we kill the industry that keeps you alive and feed.. Just for shits and giggles and well see how fast you pull your head from your ass..

I am a millwright, Silly Billy. I can work in any industry that uses machinery. And have worked in several already. Plus, at 72, I am already an overage worker. I can retire at any time and let you youngin's support my ass on SS and my pension. That is, if you ever get out of your Grandma's basement.

Let me dial that in to .0002....................I remember you saying to me you were a young chap and now you are 72.

I am supposing you didn't notice that Obama halted the "RENEWAL PROCESS" as well. something neither of the two previous presidents have done.. This will kill many mines placed in Idle by the Obama administrations rule changes over the last 7 years. This is a cold and calculating blow to the mining industry, If they are not currently producing coal they can not renew..

At least he was honest about one thing. He said he was going to kill the coal mining industry. And, of course. all of the jobs go with it.

Do you understand why the prices are so low? As they will go down to possible $16 a barrel?

What this country needs is more smog, air pollution, and black lung disease! China has the worst smog alerts in the world due to coal power. WE MUST NOT LET CHINA GET AHEAD OF US!

That's a stupid post as our emission standards are some of the best in the world. Our carbon foot print has went down with technology. Yet you want it to go away completely which is stupidity. Which is expected of your side of the equation.

The President is responsible for the price of gas.

All Republicans told me that in 2012 when they repeatedly said Obama was the only President with an average price of over $3 a gallon and that prices would go over $6 if Obama was elected

But I do LOVE my $1.62 a gallon Obamagas!

Just supporting Billy Bob's argument. Obama is intentionally taking away the rights of West Virginians to black lung disease, and other terminal lung disorders. It's not right, I say!
