Make burning Coal Illegal in the United States with a fine of $100 per tonne burned.

Created by P.H. on November 17, 2015

Burning Coal represents a highly inefficient way of making energy when factoring in the cost of CO2 pollution.
The pending Economic Contraction as a result of CO2 derived form burning coal will cause wide spread chaos.
Banning Coal burning, and imposing a $100 per short tonne fine will create an incentive to stop pollution by making Cola burning too expensive to be a viable technique for energy production.
Simply Banning Coal provides a SIMPLE platform to campaign on. "Ban Coal".
Set a simple example to the rest of the world.
Stimulate job growth as a result of replacement energy technologies needed make up for the short fall. Gas, Wind, Solar, Batteries.
Use the generated revenue to stimulate new technology innovation: Batteries, Photo-voltaics, Smart Grid.
