Strawman. Not all electricity comes from not need come from coal.

Roughly half of all electricity generated and about 60 per cent of
what is generated by electrical utilities.

When was the last one built? When will the next be built? IOW,
another asinine argument from a leftist weenie.

Since you asked so nicely, according to the latest DOE report
(February 18, 2008), as of September 20, 2007, there were 28
coal-fired power plants under construction (14,885 MW), 6 more nearing
construction (1,859 MW) and 13 more that had received construction
permits (6,422 MW). There were a further 67 plants (42,394 MW) that
had been announced, but had not as of that time been issued permits.
