<br>All:<br><br>From a message to a friend:<br><br><div>Those in power trying to block significant change regarding lowering CO2 emissions are losing the argument. You are too pessimistic about CO2 sequestration for coal power and the possibility of sharing this technology with the Chinese. CEOs of USA energy industries are already aware that aggressively addressing CO2 emissions is going to happen, and happen soon (next twenty years).

<div>Below read statements from American Electric Power, the largest coal electric generating company in the USA. They are already moving towards addressing CO2 emissions from coal power and sharing the technology with China. The statement at the pdf link below states (we shall see if this is true!) that in the next decade they expect to have a "nearly emission free" plant in operation. I listened to CEO Michael Morris discuss these issues on C-Span just the past month. He was more informed about what the future will demand to address CO2 emissions than most in the American public. Morris publicly reinforced what I have been writing about coal power and China and India... I am not wildly speculating about technology exchange with China to address CO2 emissions from coal. As you can read, my thoughts are in tune to some extent with the CEO of the largest coal oriented electric company in the USA:

<p>"The issue is global warming, not U.S. warming," said Mike Morris, the chief executive of American Electric Power of Columbus, Ohio, the largest coal-burning utility in the country.</p>
<p>Unless China, India and other developing nations also are forced to adopt costly alternatives to traditional fossil fuels, U.S. manufacturers - a major customer for AEP - will be at an unfair competitive disadvantage, Morris said.
