No alternatives?
All our power is supplied by Hydro.
That's not an alternative in many places in the US and the environmentalists will lose their minds if you try and start putting up dams in the places you can.

I don't think that will fly. Hell in cali they won't even let farmers water their fields to save some damn minnow. Then you got the windmills chopping up birds all year long. I'm sure it will be big oils fault when some bird goes extinct that was chopped all to hell by the windmills. So it goes with greenies though.

We need to push as hard as we can for renewable energy and energy efficiency, and on reducing carbon emissions from coal,” says Stanford University researcher Sally Benson, who specializes in carbon storage. “We’re going to need lots of ‘ands’—this isn’t a time to be focusing on ‘ors.’ ” The carbon problem is just too big.
The real problem is that China burns about 50% of coal that is burned. India is #5 in coal reserves and still has millions of people without electricity. Any 'war on coal' that is not conducted at a global/UN level is a sure loser. Therein lies the rub.
