erm. China is bringing a lot of coal plants online in the next few years, that is true, but they're also bringing online over the next 20-30 years as many 21 nuclear power plants (my company is in the process of bidding on them now--they take 10 to 15 years to site, plan and build) to supplant and replace the coal power. The simple fact of the matter is that China is indeed looking to the future and reducing emissions, it'll take a while to get there, but at least they're trying. Here in the US we're running scared of "another 3 Mile Island" never mind the fact that the vast majority of nuke power in the US has been running without even a minor incident over the last several decades. -- will "If my life weren't funny, it would just be true; and that would just be unacceptable." - Carrie Fisher ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| ColdFusion MX7 by AdobeĀ® Dyncamically transform webcontent into Adobe PDF with new ColdFusion MX7.
