Wow! I don’t know what’s more disgusting, the lies of the clean coal industry or the the messengers they have chosen: anthropomorphic lumps of singing coal. I joke not! You can see the “Clean Coal Carolers” here in their jolly polluting glory. Really, I’m torn about what to make of these jovial Christmas turds. On one hand it is the funniest thing ever! Holy crap just listen to them! I couldn’t have created a more perfect mockery of the “clean coal” myth if I tried. Coal will be clean when pigs can fly…..or when coal starts singning. I only hope that when these coal types see the spikes in traffic to their site that they can trace most of the attention to the mockery of climate activists in the blogosphere.

But on the other hand I feel a deep sickness in my stomach to know that it’s creators truly believe that the American public is stupid enough to be won over by some festive fossils. No amount of smiling googly-eyed lumps of coal can hide the tragic devastation that coal has wrecked on our communities and our children. Unconscionable. We must continue to do everything within our power to fight this foolishness.

In the meantime, “clean coal” thanks for the laugh.
