The Sierra Club Beyond Coal campaign is designed to drastically reduce carbon dioxide emissions from coal-fired power plants, one of the largest sources of global warming pollution in the U.S. We aim to move our economy toward a clean energy future by stopping new coal-fired plants, phasing out existing plants, and keeping the massive U.S. coal reserves in the ground and out of international markets. |
