Maybe the nation canrun the clock out on this loser.
A divided Supreme Court on Tuesday abruptly halted President Obama’s controversial new power plant regulations, dealing a blow to the administration’s sweeping plan to address global warming.
In a 5-4 decision, the court halted enforcement of the plan until after legal challenges are resolved.
How bout we put him in the freezer.
5-4
we’re always fooked with this guy or near fooked
change can’t come fast enough
Until the material science in the component design can bring the power generation up to and (more importantly) over the level achieved by combustion (of whatever fuel), it will always be a parlor trick, fit only to impress the Rubes from the provinces.
In the land of free enterprise someday someone somewhere will crack this nut. Then it will take over the world.
Until then, it resides in the realm of Gimcracks, and Geegaws.
SCOTUS blocked this one rule. It’ll buy some time but it’s already too late IMO.
Coal-fired generators cannot remain profitable in a regulatory environment in which the goal posts keep moving, and the only way to score is to comply by installing multi-billion dollar control add-ons. You’ll see many more base load coal fired units shut down in the next few years. It’s inevitable.
It’s one of Obama’s very few campaign promises that he kept: you can build a new coal fired generator, but we’ll bankrupt you if you do.
I fear one day in the next few years that the loss of heavy inertia on our generating grid will cause a sudden and long-term collapse of the interconnection. These small CTs, wind turbines, and PV arrays won’t be able to pull us out of a heavy sag on the system. Only big rolling iron can do that.
A temporary injunction.
The EPA has no business making these kinds of rules. The Congress was so cowardly that they foisted it on an Exec. Agency.
It ain’t a law unless it passes both Houses of Congress and is signed by the President (or overridden). The SCROTUS should just rule, categorically (like they did with homosexual “marriage”) and outlaw the Dictator’s plans.
Shucks! BO can’t execute until after the trial. Where is this great new tyranny headed?

Are they bigoted toward coal because it is black? Hmmmm inquiring minds want to know!
Take that pussy
If their religious beliefs (“climate change” is not science at all, but more a mix of religion and politics) make you want to reduce emissions of harmless plant food, then you need to allow for the construction of more nuclear power plants. But they don’t want that either.
Fortunately there is plenty of natural gas, and under US soil. But it is a shame, and a price imposition on the poor as 0bama loves to do, to force coal out of the picture.
Good thing this is out of Congress’ hands. They’d be trying to find a way to fast-track approval so Barack Hussein Onionskin wouldn’t get butt-hurt and lash out on Twitter.
And now we might find out just what dirt Obama has on Justice Roberts.
Even Japan is bringing new coal-fired power plants online.

But he has a pen and a phone. You better look out SCOTUS–he’ll use them!
They love natural gas which still produces CO2 which is their fake boogeyman and hate nuclear so clearly AGW is not their concern. They lie, lie, and lie some more. Satan would be proud.
Where him guanna gets da ‘lecticity to charge up dem Volt cars?
Oh, that’s right, that electricity is generated by magic pixie dust so the Volt, Tesla, Leaf, and others are magically zero emission cars.
