Appalachian Coalfields Climate Change Forum

Accc dropped by. Great site to keep informed.

Using Accc was able to find:

Two articles (1, 2)on how Kentucky's coal exporting. The thing that one must be remember in the future that extra mining safety and environmental requirements will no longer be an argument of raising coal prices. Now foreign interests will be getting the benefits of putting Kentucky at risk while raising prices more than safety and environmentalism alone.

An article about our own Duke Energy. After reading this if cap and trade gives out carbon credits to "non-emitters" like nuclear plants Kentucky may want to consider a surtax on tonnes of coal going to any state advantaged by the regulation.

Also Sustainable Kentucky has much orginal material and good set of link. It's worth a visit and a RSS.
