I'm a greenie, but I do figure natural gas could potentially be a stepping stone while we try to figure out the fossil fuel alternative. I don't see it as a long term solution, but at half the CO2 and much cleaner burning, it definitely seems like we should be scrapping coal as fast as we can- which could meaningfully decrease the US's total emissions. Then, we figure out what to do next. We just need Zeno's Paradox working for us.

Nuclear please.

  Sure, and that could be the next step. Unfortunately building reactors is a decade long process. This can be where gas turbines, which can be built far faster, could be a bridge.
