You might have a soft spot for coal. But it's clearly on the way out.

In Europe it is now miniscule. In North America it's in a death spiral. Just last week Japan announced a plan to reduce its coal consumption. Even countries that were very recently seen as the salvation of coal - like India - coal consumption has declined markedly in the last 2 years.

Alternatives to coal are getting cheaper all the time and cutting its grass. Coal is very labour and capital intensive, and its losing on pure economics.
