Why are we importing what kind of Columbian coal and how are we using it?
Why are we exporting what kind of American coal and from what mines.
Why is Germany importing American coal when theirs is better [?] and they're moving toward Green.
And why are coal mines re-opening as we speak in Western Kentucky? What kind is it and where is it going?
I asked about hydroelectric because coal is a backup at those stations.
I asked about a hydroelectric because we talked about the footprint of a solar farm. What about the footprint of TVA?
Talked about the finite output of a solar / wind farm being weather dependent.
Talked about the finite output of hydroelectric given no more dams are going to be built but however much power they can continue to squeeze out of those old dams, they still got to pay the maintenance.
So far, no dam catastrophe.
So far no Chernobyl.

American idiocy is complicated....
