TreeHugger has been pretty consistent about coal, covering the destruction caused by its mining, the ineffectiveness of coal to liquid technologies even with sequestration, and the inane lobbying and advertising that the industry does. You can see many of our anti-coal posts here.

This can occasionally lead to posts like "Coal: Our Nation’s Workhorse", somewhat a different spin than our usual " Coal: The Enemy of the Human Race." What should we do?
