Much the same as the Super-collider Federal project in the late 80s, federal funding support for a new energy technology generation coal plant to be constructed in Illinois was cancelled due to politics and more powerful influences favoring other uses of the monies and bias towards existing energy technologies. This is a tremendous setback to creating alternative clean energy sources to address global warming. Hopefully the next administration will reverse this serious error of judgement and offer full support for this project in 2009 so we can get to work soon on cleaning up all the harmful CO2 emissions from electricity generating coal plants across the nation within a decade.*****
