It’s bad faith to try and move the goal post and act like this conversation was about anything but heating effect and climate change.

It is a fact that natural gas (read methane) infrastructure and power generation has a greater heating impact than coal.

Edit: want to be very clear here, I’m not sayin coal is clean. I’m not saying it is good to live next to a coal plant. I’m not saying build more coal plants.

I’m saying, don’t replace coal with natural gas. Put in solar, nuclear, wind, geothermal, hydro electric, ANYTHING but natural gas. If none of that is possible, then leave the damn coal plant until it is possible. Locking our selves in to 20~30 years of gas is basically guaranteeing a catastrophic climate disaster.
