Power Play
<p><strong>SECOND PRIZE: M. John Basco, April 2008, <em>Neyveli Township, Tamil Nadu</em> – Power Play:</strong> The connection between climate change and the use of fossil fuel is beyond debate. India refuses to accept that its option to generate more and more power from coal is a suicidal step that will end up impoverishing its own people. This power plant has been strikingly photographed, but more dramatic by far is India’s plan to increase rather than cut back on coal-fired thermal plants in the years ahead.</p>
