You might have seen this add on every single commercial break last night during Daily Show and Colbert. It's about time we get some screen time.
The Reality campaign is a project of Al Gore's Alliance for Climate Protection. Unfortunately the campaign materials leave out the single largest argument that there's no such thing as clean coal; AS LONG AS WE'RE BLOWING UP MOUNTAINS, it doesn't matter how much emissions are cleaned. (a good article about the ad campaign, here).
You might have caught another quick shout to the coal justice movement during Wednesday's Daily Show. During the "Lame Duck Presidency" skit, PC guy makes reference to the Lame Turduken Bush's 11th hour decision to effectively gut the Stream Buffer Zone rule, allowing mining operations to dump waste into rivers. Obama? Clean-up, aisle eleven.
