A little over 20% of US electricity is generated from coal. There are around 2400 coal power plants in the world.

My understanding is that if we could turn off all the coal plants tomorrow we could actually significantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

Would it buy us a significant amount of time if we accelerated the conversation to natural gas?
