Clean coal carolers

This web video is part of a viral marketing PR campaign by the American Coalition for Clean Coal Electricity, a front group for the coal industry. The "clean coal" campaign tries to counter coal's association with the problem of global warming.

Greenpeace has written a detailed critique of the myth of clean coal, titled False Hopes: Why Carbon Capture and Storage Won't Save the Climate." For further information, see: http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php?...

The same reason why the Vanderbilts, Rockefellers, and Carnegies all slept like babies. They were rich as hell and could care less about their fellow man.

[SlightyDisturbedNBK]

No more burning fossilized dead plants for energy. Solar, wind, wave and nuclear are better options.

[bigmaclovesyou]
