January 9, 2020 - Several thousand dollars have begun to come in for the campaign “Saving US Coal”. Friends of the coal industry are beginning to realize that they want to make a difference and that something positive can be done to save American coal.

“If what’s left of the US coal industry is to be saved, Obama’s EPA CO2 endangerment finding must be overturned and we need everyone’s help to continue to fund our efforts to make it happen,” said Bill Reid, Managing Editor, CoalZoom. We need to raise $450,000 before January 31.

This year, coal production is falling to 601 million tons or less with continued idling and closing of coal mines. Unless we act, within 10 years production will fall to about 300 million tons as coal power plants are closed in the name of reducing CO2 levels.

To stop this decline, CoalZoom has teamed up with respected industry leader, Fred Palmer, and internationally renowned scientist, Dr. Craig Idso, in the campaign “Saving US Coal” with the single goal of overturning the CO2 endangerment finding.

“It is now very clear that the overturning of the CO2 endangerment finding is vital but we need everyone in the industry to help by contributing to the effort and making a donation before January 31.” said Reid.

The CoalZoom campaign was launched in November and already four videos have been released with another coming soon. The legal filing is now planned for February as funds become in. The progress with “Saving US Coal” and the videos can be seen here.

“Everyone has a very simple choice to make,” said Reid. “We can either sit and do nothing or we can stand and fight for our coal industry that we all love and has made America great. I ask you to stand up with us and join the fight by making a donation to “Saving US Coal” by January 31 so we can complete the legal filing in February.
