Coal is hot. Press accounts hail it as "the energy of our future." Television news shows tout the potential of liquid coal fuel for cars, and industry pundits cite reports that the U.S. has a 250-year supply of coal buried underground. Journalist Jeff Goodell, however, tells a different story. He agrees that coal is cheap and abundant, but he argues that it is the worst possible energy choice. He asserts that coal overheats the climate; causes grave health problems for tens of thousands of Americans; hurts our environment and our economy; and hobbles our ability to deal realistically with our energy problems. His book is well researched and vigorously argued.

Big Coal: The Dirty Secret Behind America's Energy Future
This book was published in 2007 and not a thing that written about in this book has changed in the last eight years. The coal industry has lied and cheated its way into our daily lives and there is not one thing we can do about it.
The power industry does not want to move away from coal because it is cheap and easy. Still yet we see how an industry is running the political discourse of how we generate power in this country. With such political clout as the power companies have we will be a long time in moving away from coal-burning power plants.
I keep hearing that there is no reasonable replacement for fossil fuels but if the energy industry continues to fight for the things as they are we will never get ourselves away from fossil fuels. The next time you see an ad from the energy industry about all they are doing to move toward renewable energy do not be fooled.This review was originally posted on THE PFAEFFLE JOURNAL
