Look beyond decades of carbon capture deficit, though, and you'll
see biomass plants that release a bit
more greenhouse
gasses — as in 50 percent
more CO2 and nitrous oxide than coal plants, and (across all pollutant categories) eight times
more than a
natural gas plant.
Just as greater use of
natural gas for U.S. electricity generation has reduced our carbon emissions to levels not
seen in
more than two decades, U.S.
natural gas can bring emissions reduction progress to other nations.
As can be
seen by the figure, solar is being subsidized by over 1200 times
