Turn on your computer, flip on a light, pop dinner in the microwave... chances are you are using coal-based electricity. In fact, more than half of all electricity consumed by American households and businesses comes from coal. Our reliance on inexpensive coal-based electricity enhances our nation's energy security, because coal is a domestically abundant energy resource. There are an estimated four trillion tons of coal reserves, or a 240-year supply, within the U.S.
