“Courts have been clear, the federal government has to stop its coal boosterism, which is detached from reality. The truth is that coal is destroying our climate and killing and sickening great numbers of people, costing the public billions upon billions in harm each year,” said Shiloh Hernandez the attorney with the Western Environmental Law Center. “For the sake of all of us, the government needs to oversee a managed decline of this industry that protects public health, ensures full reclamation – funded by industry and not the public – and helps us justly and equitably transition to a sustainable clean energy future.”
