Coal Trains or Clean Development – Northwest Crossroads

Coal is the dirtiest fossil fuel, by far. New regulations and cleaner, cheaper energy alternatives have led to a dramatic drop in coal fired energy in the United States. Washington and Oregonhave recently reached agreements to shut down our only coal-fired power plants. But, the coal companies and their allies have other plans. They want to take the coal that is no longer needed here and send it on trains to new Northwest ports where it can be loaded on ships to be burned in Asia.
