Coal: Because you care enough to burn the very best

I’ve watched this video four times now and I can’t stop laughing 4

Yeeeessss.

Because the only enemy of the human race greater than coal is ... the human race.

This video comes to us from filmmaker Jeremy Beiler of Brooklyn, who is also a Grist reader and fan.

Kate Sheppard is Grist’s political reporter.

    Great subversive ad!Love the way the whole thing seems so real until you catch the guy coughing into his particulate mask. I like also the way it's poking fun not only at the coal industry but the shallowness of members of the public.
    "My friend has a pool." "I don't vote."
    Best. Lines. Ever.
