Maybe this will motivate Cuomo not to shut down all the nuclear plants in NY. I'm not sure how he plans to achieve any sort of reduction if you have to replace nuclear as well (which provides NY with 30% of its electricity).

New York can buy from Canada. Quebec has a vast ability to generate hydropower.

Hydropower is bad for the eco system.

Replace Nuclear with Renewables. Not with coal.

Why replace nuclear at all? Renewables are great but the nuclear energy industry has a great capacity for cleaning generating energy.

Compared to the amount of health issues from coal the amount is minuscule. Personally I think nuclear is a great source of energy so long as the plants are properly maintained... which seems to be an issue.
