Comment Re:Location of pollution (Score 1) 341
My gasoline is drilled and refined many more miles away than my local power station. So what's your point? How much is energy is lost shipping my gas to my local gas station? Including what I waste driving to the gas station in the first place?
And yes, I clearly expressed that pollution is a global problem. But if we're going to have smokestacks, I'd rather have big smokestacks well away from where people live rather than everybody driving around with their own little smokestack pumping out crap right on my street. Yes, I'd rather have no smokestacks, but that's not gonna happen any time soon.
