Alright, you sucked me in one last time...
It's not the cornstalk that you should be concerned about. It's the sequestered carbon that we're releasing through the burning of coal. It's been in the ground millions of years. The surface of the planet is balanced more or less as far as recycling carbon. When you mine millions of tons of coal and release it's locked away carbon, you're pumping that much more carbon into the atmosphere. How does it get taken outta the atmosphere? Through algae blooms (plankton) in the ocean, through corn fields, through rainforests. Problem is, all this biomass can't possibly take it all up and it remains in the atmosphere. The planet tries to take it up through producing more biomass. More biomass on a planet that is 70% water translates into more algae blooms. Algae is one form of plankton. Plankton grows in the ocean. We're poisoning the ocean with carbon.
You keep accusing me of not researching, yet you don't cite anything you say. You pretty much toe the line of the mega-industrial corporation, an entity who's sole purpose is to produce profit no matter the cost. They don't care how much they pollute as long as they can get away with it. Your kids and my kids will pay the cost.
You're exactly right that it's not about what best for the planet, it's about a few's profit. You're just looking at the wrong few.

When dealing with thinner metals like sheet tin, a long bolt and
