Coal is Over. Fund the Future.

Rather than turn to cleaner, safer options for energy, the US is in the midst of a "Coal Rush," proposing to build over 150 new coal-fired power plants, and relaxing laws to allow even more rampant coal mining to destroy communities and ecosystems. Numerous studies show that prioritizing clean renewable energy will provide far greater benefits to our climate, environment, communities, jobs and our economy than continuing to invest in outdated and harmful fossil fuels.
