Bush's proposal would be to increase our level of biofuels production
by 35 billion gallons in the next 10 years (although some have informed me that this is actually for all alternative fuels, which would include
coal to
liquids).
Due to the high cost of capturing, transporting, and sequestering carbon dioxide, EPA expects that any new
coal fired power plants built in the foreseeable future will defray the costs of CCS
by selling its carbon dioxide to oil companies, which can use the gas to help extract oil
by displacing
liquid fuels deep underground, in a process known as CO2 enhanced oil recovery (or CO2 - EOR).

By 2020, Chinese PER CAPITA emissions will be higher than America's Does not believe that the 0.6 degree temperature rise to date is the West's «fault,» but does believe that China is the future problem Whatever U.S. does about emissions reduction and what people do as individuals is totally trivial in face of the fact that China is adding huge amounts of
coal fired generating capacity The most meaningful emissions reduction strategy today would be to convert China from
coal to natural gas The claim that there are more frequent or more intense hurricanes and tornadoes as a result of AGW is not scientifically supported We can reduce emissions, but it is important that we do the RIGHT things (and NOT the WRONG ones) Not worried about «peak oil;»

To satisfy the increase in world
liquids demand in the Reference case,
liquids production increases
by 28.3 million barrels per day from 2010 to 2040, including the production of both petroleum (crude oil and lease condensate, natural gas plant [NGPL], bitumen, extra-heavy oil, and refinery gains), and other
liquid fuels (
coal - to -
