In Indiana there are plans to to build the first environmentally friendly coal fired power plant. Duke Energy has started studying different methods for capturing carbon dioxide. A stimulus bill has been passed that gives 3.4 billion dollars for the collection of carbon.

Okay so, they are researching a clean way to capture and store carbon, presumably from coal mines. I'm not entirely sure how they plan to do it, but they are pouring a lot of money into it so maybe they'll find a good way. When they do please let everyone else know because then there might be a chance to save this world... :) I like the idea of a cleaner power plant, not that we need another power plant in the country. Anyway, this could lead to a cleaner, better environment. And that's something I like.

Until next time...
