We’re not justifying that coal power plants is good, but I think, considering the magnitude of contribution to the world wide CO2 emissions, Green Peace should focus their battle against coal in the United States rather than in small countries like Philippines. Why?

Based on the United States DOE data, http://www.eia.doe.gov/cneaf/electricity/epa/figes1.html, the total electricity generated in the United States in 2006 from coal is a whooping 1,992 Billion KWh or almost half (49%) of their total energy produced.

Where as,in the Philippines, total electricity generated from coal is only 14 Billion KWh (34%) in the same year. That is, their activities in the United States should be more than 100 times of what they are doing in small countries like the Philippines.
