China Moving to Buy 100 Metric Tons of Coal from Russia

You're awfully concerned about me addressing what you said when you refuse to address the EPA poisoning a river.

You can stop pretending you want honest debate.

The EPA did not create the waste. If you want to condemn them for allowing such a lousy solution for the waste to start with, I will not disagree.

And yet you want these unelected bureaucrats to make decisions that affect all our lives.

They're not competent to. But you don't dare criticize your masters!

Pathetic.

Sure, we can just leave it up to industry. LOL Watch the rivers burn again.

Still yet another opportunity to condemn unelected bureaucrats poisoning a river wasted.

Seems to me you condemned Obama. He was elected.

 

[daveman]

Seems to me you condemned Obama. He was elected.

Did Obama dig a hole in the waste pool's dyke? No. Incompetent bureaucrats from the EPA did.

Try not to be any stupider than you absolutely have to. And don't you DARE criticize the EPA. You'll burst into flames, and then they'll fine you for polluting.

The error was in allowing the waste to be there to start with.

Has anyone pointed out that 100 tons of coal would operate a single major power plant for about a day and a half?

China is building some 43 new coal plants, so don't worry they'll be buying more:

China puts coal plants at full capacity, even as it touts hosting a 'green' Olympics

"Coal supply will be increased and coal-fired power plants" will run at full capacity, the central government said this week.

That's not it. It's government regulation.

Coal-fired power plants to close after new wastewater rule​

RGGI raised as reason for potential coal-fired power plant unit closing​

That is it. All our coal fired power plants are very old. They can't be retrofitted.

 

[daveman]

The error was in allowing the waste to be there to start with.

Bloody hell. You're terrified to criticize the EPA. Why? Would it lead you to a realization that you don't want to confront?

Everything can be retrofitted, if the government doesn't make it too expensive.

I said they erred when they allowed the waste to be stored as it was. They never should have allowed that.

 

[initforme]

You want people to trust industry to do the right thing? We need 100,00 Patriots like Erin brockovich. Watch them like a hawk.

 

[surada]

Why cant china just spend the money on windmills instead of coal?

China is also gorging on Saudi oil. Have you ever seen their consumption numbers?

 

[Mac-7]

China is also gorging on Saudi oil. Have you ever seen their consumption numbers?

No, but I’m sure they are high

like imperial japan in the 1930s china needs natural resources that it doesent have

totally dominating the south china sea is on their todo list

 

[surada]

You forget the KNOWN Coal reserves data?

Mining Technology

Countries with the biggest coal reserves​

updated 14 Nov 2021

Excerpt:

United States of America – 250.2 billion tonnes​

The United States holds the world’s biggest coal reserves. The nation’s proved coal reserves as of December 2018 stood at 250.2 billion tonnes (Bt) accounting for approximately 24% of the world’s proven coal reserves.

Yes. I know about coal reserves. How do you account for the steady decline of coal mining since 1950? Do you remember cities like Birmingham and Georgetown back when they used coal?

 

[surada]

No, but I’m sure they are high

like imperial japan in the 1930s china needs natural resources that it doesent have

totally dominating the south china sea is on their todo list

My remark was poorly written. I have no idea how much oil or coal China uses.

 

[daveman]

I said they erred when they allowed the waste to be stored as it was. They never should have allowed that.

So their "solution" was to drain it into a river.

And you can't even condemn them for it.

You and your bullshit are dismissed.

That isn't what they decided was it?
