Big Coal（ISBN=9780618872244） fb2 pdf azw3 网盘 rtf 免费 下载 txt

　　Long dismissed as a relic of a bygone era, coal is back --

with a vengence. Coal is one of the nation's biggest and most

influential industries -- Big Coal provides more than half the

electricity consumed by Americans today -- and its dominance is

growing, driven by rising oil prices and calls for energy

independence. Is coal the solution to America's energy problems? On

close examination, the glowing promise of coal quickly turns to

ash. Coal mining remains a deadly and environmentally destructive

industry. Nearly forty percent of the carbon dioxide released into

the atmosphere each year comes from coal-fired power plants. In the

last two decades, air pollution from coal plants has killed more

than half a million Americans. In this eye-opening call to action,

Goodell explains the costs and consequences of America's addiction

to coal and discusses how we can kick the habit.
