[Gasification] Man made global warming and gasification

[Don]

FRANK (AND OTHERS),

WITH THE HUGE AMOUNTS OF COAL (IN THE USA, CHINA, AND CANADA :-) ),
WOULD YOU BE SO KIND AS TO SHARE THE ADVANTAGES AND DISADVANTAGES
OF THE NEWER COAL GASIFICATION  BURNING METHODS, VERSES THE OLD COAL
BURNING PLANTS, AND OF COURSE NUCLEAR PLANTS, INCLUDING ECONOMICS?

MAY I ASK WHAT "MPA" STANDS FOR AS WIKIPEDIA WAS NOT HELPFUL.
THANK YOU!

DON
