Renewables Aren't Enough. Clean Coal Is the Future

GreenGen is a billion-dollar facility that extracts the carbon dioxide from a coal-fired power plant and, ultimately, will channel it into an underground storage area many miles away. Part of a coming wave of such carbon-eating facilities, it may be China’s—and possibly the planet’s—single most consequential effort to fight climate change.

This sounds like an interesting stop-gap to deal with coal until we can switch off of it to better energy sources.
