Keeping Us Warm

It's 10 below zero F, and this coal plant is warming the planet and our homes at the same time. Still, there is kind of a serene beauty to it.

That is a beautiful photo. If it was film, I hope you rewound it very slowly!

 

I told my bride about your walk in this stuff, and her comment was you guys should move further south. She just went outside in 14 degrees (10 C) and was none too pleased with the temperature.

Like the colors and especially, the breadth of the vapor mist trails from the stacks.

Bill and Paul--Thanks much.

 

Bill, the whole trick is dressing right for this stuff. I had long johns under lined pants, turtle neck under a heavy sweater, a Marmot coat heavy enough to use on Mt. Everest, a balaclava, insulated boots, heavy gloves and ski goggles. The wind chill when I shot this was -35 F, but I was actually pretty warm. Normally I encounter several people on the bike path I was walking on, but yesterday for some reason I was out there all alone.

Impressive shot, lovely vapor, like an ocean liner at full speed. Thanx for sharing.

cheers:

Sam

Brent,

The pattern the smoke makes against the blue sky is just beautiful.

Would you object if the climate change would turn Wisconsin into another Florida?

Brent, I went out in sub 20 degree temperatures today and was so hot I was sweating. Snow Mantra Parka, http://www.allthingsarctic.com/detail.aspx?ID=679
