How many coal plants are there in the world today?
Green New Deal???
The EU has 468 – building 27 more… Total 495
Turkey has 56 – building 93 more… Total 149
South Africa has 79 – building 24 more… Total 103
India has 589 – building 446 more… Total 1036
Philippines has 19 – building 60 more… Total 79
South Korea has 58 – building 26 more… Total 84
Japan has 90 – building 45 more… Total 135
China has 2,363 – building 1,171 more… Total 3,534
That’s 5,615 projected coal powered plants in just 8 countries.
USA has approximately 25 – building 0 more…Total 25 Link for map
5615 divided by 25 = 4/1,000% That’s 1/4 of 1 % of the world’s coal plants. If we shut them all down right now, it wouldn’t make a bit of difference, although it might escalate your utility bill, and it might make the people who make windmills and solar panels a little richer. And for sure it would make Al Gore and his mother earth worshiping thugs a little richer on their carbon credits. Al Gore’s carbon footprint is about 35 times the average American’s. Hey, but it’s o.k. – he’s a typical hypocritical liberal! Save the planet? 100% B.S.
And Democrat politicians with their “green new deal” want to shut down those 25 plants in order to “save” the planet.Because you could not get many Republicans off the sofa last November, the Socialist party now runs the U.S. House Of Representatives.
“The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.”
This makes the point. Whatever the USA does or doesn’t do won’t make a Tinker’s Dam regarding CO2 unless the rest of the world – especially China and India – does reduce coal-fired power plants, too.
The whole “global warming” and “climate change”gambits by Democrats are to create a *supposedly*sound, scientific basis to justify a federal government power-grab and the passage of MORE laws to increase taxes and increased control of the privately owned power industry and its distribution. Never forget the *main* motivation they have!

Chris,
Thanks for the update, I updated the math assuming that your map is accurate; I was able to count approximately 25 coal plants. It’s not “all a lie”, but your information may be more accurate than mine, so I gave you the benefit of the doubt and I posted the link as well. We certainly know from Hillary’s campaign in 2016 that she was going to shut down all of the coal plants. I’m sure she would have had a better chance of election if she had withheld that comment, but it was not in the cards. Who knows, maybe the natural gas industry is behind the desire to shut down coal plants – I don’t trust anybody hardly, and especially not the bought and paid for corporate media. Not sure of your position on the matter, but I appreciate accuracy. If there are any more errors, please advise, and please feel free to comment – I try to read and address them all. Having been in sales, I’m thick skinned, so you won’t offend me with the truth, although please do try to keep it concise if not terse.
