Coal is a highly polluting energy source. It emits much more carbon per unit of energy than oil, and natural gas. CO2 represents the major portion of greenhouse gases. It is, therefore, one of the leading contributors to climate change. From mine to sky, from extraction to combustion -- coal pollutes every step of the way.
@seeroflight Come on carbon dyoxide is the only gas left that is dispersed into the air. You know that gas that is esential to the survival of our trees and plant live.This is fact . And if you belive carbon dyoxide is a pollutant . If criminals like al gore can convince people that a gas that is vital to our very survival is toxic than our world is doomed. They also want to tax us for exhaleing. leys say your right. How in the hell is paying billions to Gore going to solve the problem?
"Clean Coal" is an oxymoron. If Reagan hadn't defunded and obfuscated the advances in Solar energy made during the Carter administration, we wouldn't be dependent on coal or petroleum for our energy now. I keep thinking about it. Thirty years of research that never happened. How many lives lost? How many rivers polluted beyond recovery? How much wildlife destroyed? Clean Coal? I don't think you are getting enough oxygen to your brain!
