| Will Wyoming`s Future Be Black or Green? |  |
| Wyoming may choose to put a bucking bronco on it`s license plates rather than a strip mine, and call itself "the Cowboy State," but "the Energy State" is certainly the more accurate label. Natural gas and oil are pumped from our high plains and increasingly from our scenic mountain areas, but coal contains the greatest quantity of carbon energy found in the state. An astounding 38% of all the electricity now generated in the USA comes from burning Wyoming coal. We also have the potential to produce as much as 10% of the country`s electricity from the low cost capture of wind energy. |
