Problems with Coal

By Alex Mullins

Coal is a problem in a lot of ways, but it is good in a little. I will tell you how it is a problem and how it is good, but also other stuff. Coal does make energy, but it also makes dust and ash and slurry, and coal companies don't care about the dust and ash and slurry, they only want profit*. Coal also is a water filter. The coal makes water clean. But when it is mined, the water turns orange. Coal mining is at Eastern KY, WV, and VA. And how can you help us stop mountain top removal is to join organizations like Appalachian Voices, Mountain Justice, and Heartwood.

*profit is money, lots of money.
