Natural Gas is unicorn farts? But cheap carbon is great for power plant operators.
Coal’s enemy is not Obama, it’s Fracking.
Actually, no.
I am a big supporter of fracking. Fracking is why gasoline is back below $2 per gallon and OPEC is going down into the dustbin of history. I also live in a state (Texas) that produces lots of oil and gas and not much coal.
But the fact is that coal is still much cheaper and more plentiful of an energy source in the U.S., or it would be if Obama had not declared war on coal and done everything he can to kill off the industry.
