In reply to the discussion: Alabama state officials: We won’t comply with the EPA because God gave us coal [View all]1Greensix
(111 posts)55. Alabama wind blows East
Even though I have absolutely NO proof of it, I assume that citizens in South Carolina, Georgia and Florida like to breathe clean air and fish in lakes that Have fish. Maybe they do, and maybe they don't, but I'll give them the benefit of the doubt. And, since the wind in Alabama blows to the east, those states will receive all the polluted air and acid rain from burning coal in Alabama. I'll just bet those people support more coal burning in Alabama, because hey, who Doesn't love polluted air for their grandchildren and acid rain that sterilizes their lakes and rivers.

God's coal is in the ground. They're digging it out and selling God's work. Shame on them.
