The Web site of Peabody Energy, the largest coal company in the free world, juxtaposes a running tally of tons of coal sold (about 8 tons per second or so) with the message that it is a "global leader in clean energy solutions..."

I can see lots of "good side" messages for the company (electricity is vital, e.g.) but it's hard to wrap my head around that one.
