You know, first of all, liquefied coal was a horrible idea the first time. It was very ecologically ruinous and the way we'd go about making it makes a deep sea oil platform a much, much safer option.
Second of all, solving ecological issues is not something with a single, simple panacea. To really do this would require a sustained, GLOBAL process that's clearly not about a way to maintain the status quo at the expense of the people on the low end of today's totem pole. There is no silver bullet that can with one stroke actually solve these issues, there is only a complicated process where multiple, integrated, interrelated issues have to be resolved in tandem. As such any quest for anyone variety of new energy of necessity must fail on a global level because different areas of the planet, simply put, aren't like other areas.
