Coal isnât warming many hearts, or homes, in the United States these days. It is a fossil-fuel energy source with a diminished market and reputation, one that when combusted, produces carbon dioxide emissions.
In a world dealing with climate change as well as COVID-19, there is a strong sentiment to transition away from this abundant but problematic resource.
On Monday morning, however, a couple of influential leaders discussed coalâs attributes and the need for it to coexist with natural gas and renewables. United Mine Workers president Cecil Roberts and U.S. Sen. Joe Manchin â men with deep West Virginia roots â spoke during a National Press Club Virtual Headliners event.
