Coal is dirty

A new blog takes on the enemy of the human race 2

This week marked the launch of Coal is Dirty. (It is "a joint project managed by The DeSmog Project, Rainforest Action Network, and Greenpeace U.S.A.")

The site is devoted to battling Big Coal's PR machine. They've got some great writers involved, including Jeff Goodell (author of Big Coal) and Jeff Biggers. Bookmark it.

    Old King Coal

    What Grist fails to point out, after having been tutored many times, is that almost half of all the CO2 being emitted by power generation is by a handful of very old and poorly made coal plants.
    Closing down these big polluters, yes, even with brand new coal plants, will still allow us to make our Kyoto numbers faster than any conversion to alternative fuel.



    Oil Is So Hot!
