Greenpeace activists climbed a 180-metre chimney at a power station in Belchatow, central Poland, on Tuesday to protest Warsaw's coal policies ahead of UN climate talks this month.

The state-run plant is Poland's biggest power producer, Europe's largest polluter and one of the biggest coal power plants in the world. Nine activists climbed an internal ladder to the top of the conical chimney at the plant, which is fuelled by lignite and belongs to PGE.

"I am from a mining family, we have been connected to coal mining for generations. There is no future in coal. What we need is a just transition from coal and fossil fuels to renewables," Marek Jozefiak, an activist climbing the chimney said.

Failed Nuclear Power Plant Costs Utility Company $2 Billion. Helps Bankrupt Westinghouse Corporation. Did You Ever Wonder Why the Sun Works?

https://www.wyff4.com/article/sc-utility-reaches-dollar2-billion-settlement-over-nuclear-plant/25296920

Troubled utility SCANA has reached a $2 billion settlement with the South Carolina customers who sued after they were charged high rates to pay for the company's failed nuclear construction project.

Santee Cooper and South Carolina Electric & Gas Co. abandoned the V.C. Summer Nuclear Station expansion project near Columbia in 2017 following the bankruptcy of lead contractor Westinghouse.

The settlement included no admission of guilt or blame from SCANA. The company consistently has deflected blame for the project’s failure to lead contractor Westinghouse for declaring bankruptcy in March 2017 and state-owned minority partner Santee Cooper for unilaterally pulling out of the construction effort on July 31, 2017.

The projects responsible for this loss are mostly the construction of four AP1000 reactors at Vogtle in Georgia and V. C. Summer in South Carolina. Westinghouse filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection on March 29, 2017. In 2018,Westinghouse was acquired by Brookfield Business Partners and some partners.

Here is what Westinghouse says about the benefits of Nuclear Power. They Fail to mention that it Bankrupted the Company... They Fail to mention that Nukes Create Atomic Waste that has to be Stored Safely for THOUSANDS of years...

Did you ever wonder Why the Sun Works? It's a Fusion Reactor that combines Hydrogen atoms to become Helium. AND there is more MATTER in the Hydrogen than in the Helium... and that MATTER is converted into energy... E=MC2... or maybe it's GOD... He does AMAZING Things...

Great Movie: "Revolution Green" A History of Biodiesel and Willie Nelson's BioWillie Fuel

Revolution Green is a revealing documentary about the renewable energy called biodiesel and it’s importance to the world economy. http://www.revolutiongreen.com/

Based on a true story, Revolution Green follows the lives of Bob and Kelly King, whose pioneering vision created America’s first sustainable biodiesel refinery in Maui back in 1996. Bob and Kelly’s company, named Pacific Biodiesel, became the first private company in America to divert and refine thousands of tons of municipal grease trap waste and waste vegetable oil into clean-burning, premium ASTM certified, B100 biodiesel. Years later, country music legend Willie Nelson became very interested in the King’s vision of sustainable biodiesel, eventually forming a strong partnership. Over a short period of time, Willie and good friend Bill Mack would single-handedly use satellite radio to talk to truckers and farmers about biodiesel, elevating the renewable fuel into mainstream recognition.
