The article states that new regulation for coal power plants are unnecessary and might actually have negative consequences and provides three different reasons for support. However, the professor explains that strict regulation should be applied and refutes each of the author's reasons.
First, the reading states that effective environmental regulations already exist. Companies, for example, use the liner-special material. The professor refutes this point by stating that it is not sufficient. She explains that it regulation are applied only to new plants. That means that old plants didn't have to use them. According to the professor, old plants create harmful damage to groundwater. That's why professor think we should apply strict regulation for the old plant too.
Second, the article claims that the regulation will increase the cost for plants and electricity for the population. However, the professor contends that point. She explains that it will increase but worth it. Implementation will cost around 15 billion dollars. He then explains that if you do simple math, you will find out that price increases for population only by 1 percent. That is not a big price for customers for such a big environmental change.
Third, the reading avers that regulation because it discourages the recycling if coal ash such as bricks, and people may stop buying the products. The lecture opposes this point by saying that people don't stop using recycling material. She provides the example of Mercury. Mercury is a hazardous material. According to the professor, despite strict regulation people have used and storage mercury for 50 years. THat's why people won't be afraid of buying products from the coal ash.
