fuels are driving climate chaos and war, and robbing us of a livable
future. Of all fossil fuels, coal is the dirtiest, and “clean coal” is so
far a fiction. From mining to burning to waste disposal, coal threatens
our health and safety. Coal also has the highest carbon content of all
fossil fuels, and is therefore the worst global warming culprit. Coal has
the largest untapped reserve while global oil and gas reserves are
declining. </SPAN><SPAN

UJP for endorsement of this event. If any UJP member groups would like to
join the organizing/coordinating of this event, including adding more coal power
plants for demonstrations, that will be fantastic. At the end of this
email is a list of all 6 locations of coal power plants in MA. We have a
coordination conference call on Thursday nights at 9pm. Please contact Eli
Beckerman for call info (Eli, 617-821-1453,

to let the powers-that-be know that it's not only the young people convening in
DC that desperately want to stop coal. <SPAN
