yeah I know its dirty, and it emits far more radiation into the atmosphere then nuke plants... I was just surprised at the discrepancy between my perception and actual numbers of coal plants.
CA is not doing too bad according to apk919's chart actually:
Natual gas-good,
Hydroelectric- not bad,
Nuclear-no bad,
GeoThermal-sweet,
Wind-awesome,
Biomass-great!
the top 5 electric power sources all seemed pretty acceptable to me.
