Dear President Donald Trump
Another lie in the litany of lies since the 1800s, is that Coal is a threat to the Environment and must be replaced by Solar Energy and Nuclear Energy.
Nations around the World are building new technology Coal Fired Electricity Power Station because they know they are environmentally clean, efficient burning less coal and produce low cost electricity without Government subsidies.

You and your advisers would know that Commercial Greenhouse businesses pump CO2 into their Greenhouses to increase production and profits.
What you and your advisers may not know is that around a Coal Fired Electricity Power Station the vegetation grows at more than twice the rate of the same vegetation away for the Coal Fired Electricity Power Station. This is because the CO2 emissions from the chimney, feeds the vegetation for more growth. In some countries they are aware of this and have small crop intensive farming around their Coal Fired Electricity Power Stations to financially benefit from the free CO2.
Question: In the USA how many Coal Fired Electricity Power Stations have small crop intensive farming around them?
A school student analysis of Solar Electricity and Nuclear Energy would show that both are environmentally unfriendly creating greenhouse gases in their construction and operation, destruct habitats and ecosystems, create human health risks from their production, construction and operation, destroy the aesthetics of urban and rural areas, generate toxic waste and materials that cannot be recycled, use significant amounts of energy in the production of the materials and in construction, with nuclear having significant usage of water for cooling, and require Government subsidies to build and operate, etc. etc.
Since the 1960s in Australia, many substantial industries were created with low cost electricity from coal mined in the area. An example, the Gladstone Boyne Island Aluminium Smelter which is the second largest in Australia.
Geological Survey (USGS) published the most comprehensive national assessment of U.S. coal resources, which indicated that as of January 1, 1974, coal resources in the United States totalled 4 trillion short tons. Although the USGS has conducted more recent regional assessments of U.S. coal resources, a new national-level assessment of U.S. coal resources has not been conducted.
The estimated recoverable reserves, include only the coal that can be mined with today’s mining technology after considering accessibility constraints and recovery factors. EIA estimates U.S. recoverable coal reserves at about 250 billion short tons, of which about 58% is underground mineable coal.
You and your advisers would be well advised to have a new national-level assessment of U.S. coal resources conducted and reconsider the Economic, Financial, Environmental and Public Health benefits of Coal compared to Solar and Nuclear Energy.
2% LIBERTY TAX can slash the cost of development, construction and operation of new technology coal fired electricity power stations and the related coal mines to produce low cost electricity to MAGA.
