Clean Coal

The only clean coal is left in the ground.


Bonus: this morning's sunrise over the dunes.

1. Lovely photos.

"Clean coal" is an oxymoron if there ever was one.

3. It is, and an insulting one too

This used to be a coal town, but the mine was closed 45 years ago. In hot, calm weather such as we're having now, the shale oil seeps almost imperceptibly out of the rocks and can be seem as a faint haze on the surface of rock pools. A reminder of how polluting it is.

6. That sounds awful.

Chicago's coal mine is in a museum as an exhibit. I've always found it a bit creepy.

2. Yes! Love the bonus pix.

I hope you are doing well, canetoad.

4. I am bc, and hope you are too!

On hot days it pays to get down to the beach early - the march flies don't get up until twenty to eight.

5. I think the orange asshole really believes they wash the coal to make it "clean."

Just like he believes you can’t see an F35 because it’s a “stealth” aircraft.
