http://wonkroom.thinkprogress.org/2009/02/04/coal-isnt-clean/ The December 22, 2008 Kingston coal ash spill was 100 times larger than the Exxon Valdez spill, destroying homes and contaminating rivers with arsenic, selenium, mercury, and lead. Despite the coal industry spending hundreds of millions of dollars to sell the public on "clean coal," the reality remains: coal isn't clean.
Great video, short and sweet.
Biggest Coal Ash spill, now biggest oil spill. If this doesn't wake enough people up against the dangers of dirty energy, I don't think I want to know what it would take.

It stuns me that this is not a MAJOR news story! I haven't seen any national coverage of the clean up, helicopters flying in over the destroyed homes, the wildlife dying or dead, nothing. Nothing is being seen on tv. The coal companies must all own the media.
