Wisconsin Gov. Jim Doyle delivers us from evil

Breaking News: Gov says no to coal for state power plants

Using coal at state-owned heating plants is not an option that should be considered as a fuel source, according to a directive issued Friday by Gov. Jim Doyle.

The directive to move away from coal is in line with recommendations made by the governor's task force on global warming.

"The state should lead by example and move away from our dependence on coal at the state-owned heating plants in Madison," Doyle said. "Global warming demands leadership, and as we plan for the future of the Madison heating facilities, we must chart a course that lowers greenhouse gas emissions and encourages new alternative energy sources."

China is said to be building one coal-fired power station a week; let's watch and see if they follow Doyle's alleged "lead".
