Tell President Obama: We Need Clean Energy, Not 'Clean Coal'

President-elect Barack ObamaDuring the presidential campaign, both Senators Obama and McCain touted their support for "clean coal".  But they were both missing the point:  Conventional coal-burning power plants are the leading cause of global warming pollution in the United States. "Clean Coal" is a myth--a contradiction in terms.  Coal companies claim they can develop coal plants at some point in the distant future that will capture and sequester carbon pollution.  But carbon capture and sequestration (CCS) is unproven and exorbitantly expensive.

We need real solutions, not coal industry myths.  Use the form below to send a message to President Obama: We need clean, renewable energy now!
