There is a covert agenda underway to cripple American energy and subject it to complete government control, leaving hardworking citizens to bear the exorbitant costs!

The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics and the U.S. Energy Information Administration estimates the number of coal-dependent jobs is much larger than generally realized — as much as eight times larger, and totals approximately 420,000 jobs and possibly millions of related jobs!

Did you know Coal also has a myriad of uses, including:

• Cement production,
• Carbon fibers
• Foams
• Medicines
• Tars
• Synthetic petroleum-based fuels
• Home heating
• Commercial heating
• Electricity Generation
• Metal Production
• Steelmaking
• Gasification
• Liquefaction
• Industrial Aluminum Products
• Key component affecting the global supply chain

Draconian climate change madness is destroying America lead by Joe Biden's Special Envoy for Climate, John Kerry as they demand a halt the building of clean coal power plants and shut down existing ones in America, but what will replace clean coal production……no answer was given.

Biden's Special Envoy made sinister clean coal eradication demands at the annual United Nations summit known as COP28 in Dubai, signifies a significant shift in the nation's energy landscape. However, as the U.S. takes steps to join the global effort in phasing out clean coal, questions arise about the potential devastating impact on America's economy and energy security.

Example, an 800 MW clean coal-fired power plant supplying electricity to 500,000 homes is almost impossible to replace but replaced it shall be if the government gets it way!  Shutting down such power plants raises grave concerns about the immediate energy gap and the ability to sustain the power needs of a significant portion of the population.

According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics and the U.S. Energy Information Administration, the number of jobs reliant on the coal industry stands at a staggering 420,000. This figure is not to be taken lightly, as it surpasses the combined total of jobs in the states of Maryland and North Dakota, which stands at 3,360,000. This highlights the significant impact the clean coal industry has on our nation's workforce and economy.

The closure of clean coal mines and power plants could lead to a surge in unemployment, affecting communities heavily relying on these jobs. The ripple effect on related industries and local economies cannot be understated.

Who is going to fill the coming escalated demand for clean coal products? Who do you think?

China, a major global player, has continued to expand its coal power plant development, challenging the effectiveness of global efforts to combat climate change. The disparity in approaches among nations raises questions about the impact of unilateral decisions on a global scale.

Clean burning coal is the answer but that four letter word C-O-A-L is in the title so it must be bad! Just ask any globalist Liberal!

The Department of Energy's National Energy Technology Laboratory (NETL) in Pittsburgh has been at the forefront of research showcasing  clean coal-fired electricity generation is cleaner than ever and has proven clean burning coal is not only economical but also reduces emission up to 98 percent!  

Cleaner and cheaper!  The DOE's Coal initiative is attempting to make coal cleaner and more sustainable. The goal is to lay the groundwork for future coal plants to be flexible, innovative, resilient, small, and transformative. The initiative also emphasizes the importance of carbon capture utilization and storage (CCUS) technologies to reduce carbon emissions associated with coal production and is far cheaper than must energy producing technologies!

Final Word: The impact on jobs, industries, and energy security cannot be ignored. Innovations in clean coal technologies and a comprehensive approach to the ‘clean-coal’ industry is being fought ‘tooth and nail’ by arrogant and blind disciples of global climate change and government control.

Why do liberals hate the word ‘CLEAN’ ?
