A major environmental debate is underway in the United Kingdom, with plans approved to build England’s first coal-fuelled power station in more than two decades.
Those behind the project say it will use cutting edge technology to tackle emissions; those against it say it’s a huge step backwards.
It’s more than twenty years since the UK’s last coal-fired power station was built, and the dash for gas began.
However, with gas supplies now dwindling, and the country’s energy gap growing, it seems coal is about to make a comeback. http://www2.skynews.com.au/eco/article.aspx?id=210212
