Why don't some power plants do anything about the heat input they are continually creating?

By' heat input' I suppose you mean to the environment. The most used heat cycle in power plants is the Rankine Cycle (you can look this up in Wikipedia) which aims to get maximum power out of a given amount of steam delivered to the steam turbine/generator. This involves expanding the low pressure steam at the back end down to a vacuum, maintained by a flow of cooling water to the condenser. This cooling water inevitably carries heat away to either a lake, the sea, or a river, or to air cooling towers, but overall efficiency of 40 percent or so can be obtained.

What is meaning for BufferedReader in equals new BufferedReader new InputStreamReade System in?
BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(System.in));This line will create a new BufferedReader object, which reads from System.in (standard input). The InputStreamReader part is used to convert System.in (which is an InputStream) to a Reader object (which can be used by BufferedReader).After creating br, you can read input from the user:String input = br.readLine();The line above will allow the user to type in anything they want, press the button, and have what they typed in stored in input.
