reviewed Labor, Loyalty, and Rebellion: Southwestern Illinois Coal Miners and World War I on August 18, 2012 Labor, Loyalty, and Rebellion: Southwestern Illinois Coal Miners and World War I
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
