Coal making a comeback



National Mining Association CEO Rich Nolan argues ‘turning off well-functioning coal plants is like selling your house and moving into one that has not been built yet.’

  1. It's because green energy is not sustainable in any way. Everything in the atmosphere and on earth is made of carbon. Carbon is not the enemy, green energy is.

  2. Joseph Biden has never been accused of being a visionary.

  3. Yes the entire economic failure is a direct result of Biden and the Democrats plus a couple of idiot Republicans. They are following the ghost president Obama and his policies.
    Skyrocketing energy prices have already precipitated food and medicine shortages. This will continue to grow sadly.
    Joe Biden is a fool. So too are those who voted for him (besides the landslide Dominion machine)
    So be happy Marxists as your eutopia is now on Americans.
    Marx proclaimed himself an acolyte of Satan so what could possibly go wrong?
    Duh!

  4. Vote to get rid of Biden and the Squad in the next election 🚙🚙🚙🚙🚙🚙🚙…Let's Go Brandon!!!

  5. IF PUTIN GOT BALLS THEN HE SHOULD GO FOR WAR WITH AMERICA….

  6. All of our world leaders are so out of touch and disconnected it is disgusting. They need to run everything they do by the American people.

  7. Go coal what’s old is new again let’s go Brandon

  8. But we burn our coal much cleaner than China.

  9. Under Biden! LOL. God conservatives are stupid. Hate is their only agenda. So sorry the world is a changing place. LOL.

  10. Gotta charge those coal-burning vehicles (Teslas) somehow.

  11. As I see it the horses could come back very soon.

  12. BIDENS GOVERNMENT is a disgrace bring down BIDENS GOVERNMENT before BIDENS GOVERNMENT brings down America GB the miners

  13. High energy prices create inflation. Inflation is at a 40 year high. So where are the cheap renewables we keep hearing about?

  14. Nothing Leftist Democrats do is rational…
    They'd eat turds if their politicians told them it was environmentally friendly.

  15. Rest in Everlasting Peace Pierre… Sounds like he was the BEST!

  16. If you had a terrorist blow a power station up, which would be easiest to repair nuclear or coal but this question should be asked to Ukraine's.

  17. I got Fireplace stove with heat exchanger, burning wood, although it can use lignite too, wood is nice to watch burn, its cleaner.
    I consider get some solar, its easiest to use but its not stable power/energy source, so it would be kind bonus. I am not much fan of some bateries, idk its durability and long term costs, it doesnt seem much green and more like luxury.
    Solar with bateries and fosil for stove seems like safe combo for upcoming years.
    There are some rumors, due to electricity supply problems, there could be blackouts. Seems like another hystery, media and mighty people love spread of chaos.
    Once you spend fortune for some kind of energy, then its another pocket needed to fill. Human life is not that long to satisfy every billionare in energy industry.

  18. Lying Liberal Controlled Puppet ! Just Delusional , Senile , Biden Is A Complete EMBARRASSMENT For Americans And A Laughable Joke , Liberal Controlled Puppet President ! Do You Really Believe 80+ Mil Votes ? Come On Man ! lo

  19. Every coal fired power plant shut down and torn down is gone forever. It is similar to the western US timber industry that has been closing mills since the late 1970's. There is roughly 20% of the mills still running. Forest fires create large tracts of usable salvage timber IF there are sawmills to cut it within 2 years of when it burned.

  20. Biden didn't shut the coal industry down?

  21. We have some of the cleanest burning Cole on Earth in the state of Utah why are they not talking about that it puts out oxygen when it burns they are giving it all to China make them stop it quit hiding it from the American people

  22. Coal will come back, i love it❤💥

  23. Dems are worried about global warming. I'm sure most of them will burn in hell and yet they don't seem to be concerned with that

  24. Biden shoots us all in the foot! Thanks a HEAP for all you've done!

  25. Vote democrats out nationwide

  26. Biden's running our country I can't think of anything more dangerous than that

  27. … Darn the 'greenies' — BURN COAL now!!! …

  28. There is a new high tech coal fired plant in EUROPE that creates tons of gypsum (for drywall) from solids collected from emissions and scrubs the rest for extremely low remaining emissions released to the atmosphere.

  29. All the wasted energy is sad.

  30. Transporting the oil by semi that the XL pipeline can carry would require nearly 4,000 trucks per day, each burning 340 gal per round trip or 1.3 million gallons of fuel or 6.8 million dollars in fuel and 30.4 million pounds of CO2 for each for round trip.
    That is PER DAY.
    In one year, trucking the oil that the XL carries will consume 475 MILLION gallons of diesel fuel costing 2.4 billion dollars and produce 11.1 BILLION pounds of CO2. The pipeline, if using nuclear or hydro electricity, would burn no diesel fuel and produce zero CO2.

  31. One thing is certain there is not a brain between the three of them Biden, Harris or Pelosi.these 3 RUINING AMERICA on just 13mo. All three of them are very incompetent it's a shame until America is being embarrassed by our leaders and are embarrassing us to our enemies leaders not sure how much more weaker we could look but I'm sure we'll find out this week honestly I wish they do scoop back down in the basement and not be heard from or seen again they're just like the children they like to play with better off steam then heard. It's like they have the mentality of those little children four & five-year-old children. Pretty crazy when you see a grown adult president of the United States kissing these small children on the lips jus saying creepy joe.

  32. I have an old 1906 stock certificate for 50 shares from Belcourt Cole and mining from my great great grandfather framed and hanging on my wall, I'm not sure if it's valuable or redeemable, it's been hanging there for years.

  33. 11 of the top 12 states with the highest poverty rate are the Republican-led states of Mississippi, Louisiana, Kentucky, Arkansas, West Virginia, Alabama, Oklahoma, Tennessee, South Carolina, North Carolina and Texas. 4 of the top 5 states most dependent on welfare are the Republican-led states of Louisiana, West Virginia, Alabama and Mississippi.

  34. " I love big beautiful coal" DJT. So do I we need every available energy source .

  35. Now biden will cut the coal industry.

  36. Go Australian coal jobs for Australian men and women

  37. COAL IS THE CHEAPEST, SAFEST, CLEANEST FUEL!
    NUCLEAR ISN'T SAFE!
    SOLAR ISN'T LOGICAL BECAUSE ITS NOT ADVANCED ENOUGH!
