Coal fired trouble.
 
This is a long read, but I think there's a lot of truth in it.
But hey it's Bush's boys who make all the gold.

"Not very many people are talking about what do we do to live with the consequences of what's happening," said James Brock, a longtime industry consultant in the Beijing office of Cambridge Energy Research Associates. "The polar bears are doomed -- they're going to museums. At the end of this century the Arctic ice cap will be gone. That means a lot of water rising, not by inches but meters."

Anderson Cooper is doing a great piece on China this week. According to his reports they are building a coal fired power plant at the rate of 2 per week. We have not built one in quite a while and when we do it takes 5 to 10 years to complete because of our environmental hoops needed to jump through.
