"Ohio Governor Bob Taft is promising to clean up his state's act when it comes to its polluting coal-fired generating plants.
Speaking with reporters at Queen's Park following a meeting with Premier Dalton McGuinty yesterday, Taft conceded Ohio has a long way to go in reducing its smog output.
"We are working very hard to reduce our pollution in the state of Ohio. We've made a lot of progress. We have a lot to make," said the Republican governor. "We have new higher standards for ... emissions. We are putting in place a plan now that will force very significant reductions in those pollutants from those power plants — as we should do," he said.
Ohio, which leads the United States in air pollution caused by its 73 coal-fired plants, is also a major producer of coal."
EDIT
Right, whatever Bob. Maybe he can have a task force study the problem.
