Coal is a killer, just like asbestos - Comox Valley Echo

Coal is a killer, just like asbestos: The pros and cons on the subject of opening a new coal mine in the Beaufort Range have been written about by many of your readers.Some have discussed job creation which on balance seems to a net zero issue.Others discuss stream and groundwater pollution and the detrimental effects on the local shell fish industry.What might be be missing from the bigger picture is that coal use is a dirty and intrinsically polluting activity that in environmentally conscientious societies is being phased out.
