What is the main weapon being used against us in the "War On Coal"? If it's the Carbon Dioxide issue, then, believe it or not, we have some allies in other nations and other states.
There is a broad-scale and international development underway to perfect the technology of what has become widely known as "artificial photosynthesis", wherein solar light energy is used to power the conversion of Carbon Dioxide, as harvested from whatever convenient source, into hydrocarbon fuels, especially into a substitute for shale natural gas Methane - which shale gas isn't nearly as abundant or as clean as it's now-suspect supporters in our press and in our government would clearly prefer to have us believe.

Carbon Dioxide - - as we might conveniently harvest as a byproduct arising from our economically essential use of Coal in the generation of abundant, affordable and reliable electric power - - can be seen and treated as a valuable raw material resource.
Carbon Dioxide holds the potential to help free the United States of America from it's economic enslavement to the foreign and in some cases dangerous nations of OPEC, and to enable the creation of new industries, and more jobs, in United States Coal Country.

We made earlier report of this via "CoalTL", but, danged if we can find it in the R&D archives - and, we're certain that's due to our too-casual system of titling our reports, and to our computer crashes which have scrambled our own records/files and made things more difficult for us here.

United States Patent Application: 0150141699
Right off the bat: The document we bring to you herein is immensely complex. The terminology used will be unfamiliar to most of the readers we address - - but, that terminology will be very familiar to anyone schooled or experienced in the processing, the refining, of natural petroleum in the making of conventional hydrocarbon fuels, and of the range of products we might term "petro-chemicals".
And, we won't be producing nearly all of the details in our excerpts.

Does anyone care that we, the citizens of the United States of America, could set ourselves free from our current economic and political enslavement to the alien, and in some cases hostile, nations of OPEC?
Does anyone care that we, the citizens of United States Coal Country, could free our economically essential Coal-fired power generation industries from the attacks being mounted against them by those, rightly or wrongly, genuinely or duplicitously, concerned about the emissions of Carbon Dioxide from those Coal-based producers of reliable, affordable and abundant electric power?
