The significance of coal combustion is further implicated by the analysis of a historical UK soil (1927) which pre-dates recognised sources like large-scale waste incineration and widespread manufacture of organochlorine compounds but not the use of coal for domestic heating....
For a period that will favour natural gas, but over time renewable energy, nuclear and possibly coal or gas with CCS will grow to dominate power generation. Coal would depart first. That is exactly what has happened in the UK, with that country bolstering the weak EU ETS with a floor ...
