    It blows me away how much of the United State's power is still produced from coal; coal just seems so 19th century.

    From the EIA:
    Coal 39%
    Natural Gas 27%
    Nuclear 19%
    Hydropower 7%
    Other Renewable 6%
    Biomass 1.48%
    Geothermal 0.41%
    Solar 0.23%
    Wind 4.13%
    Petroleum 1%
    Other Gases < 1%

    California is doing much better than most of the U.S., relying 8% on coal, and expected to drop to 4.7% by 2022.

    Coal firing has come a long long way from the 19th century lol.....but I know what you mean. The tech we are developing with Nanotubes should help with attaining fusion power. Of course that won't be without failures too. Nuclear power is still in its infancy although I would prefer it over coal.
