In fact, coal is so economically disastrous that the mainstream journal American Economics Review found that the electricity generated from coal actually does more damage to the economy than the electricity is worth.

A gigantic, blood-sucking parasite that’s enriching a few executives and shareholders at the public’s expense.”
