60 Minutes did a great piece on the Coal Ash issue that lead me to this blog post. Here's the link to watch it: http://www.cbsnews.com/video/watch/?id=5362297n It's a great example of how the industry is trying to "greenwash" the coal ash issue by convincing the gov't that it's "just like dirt", when it's obvious that coal ash has much more concentrated, and thus more toxic, levels of arsenic, etc. Clearly the toxic nature of the coal ash amounts to more data to support stopping the burning of coal all together.
