Green Leaf Report

I’m amazed that the environmental lobbying has been this successful and the TXU permit for the coal plant near Waco has been denied in its early phase.  It may still go through with the help of the illustrious Texas gov Perry, but the fact that this environmental movement has been supported by the mainstream Texas legal system is so exciting.  Fossil fuels are the primary source of greenhouse gases, and these coal plants just aren’t being planned innovatively enough to help protect our climate.  Maybe this movement is finally reaching the tipping point of affecting the practices of otherwise disinterested big businesses. Deny the permits and maybe TXU will reevaluate their plans?
