Good read moly, but if you're suggesting we shouldn't invest in coal because it's bad for us and the planet we may as well get rid of all commodities for the same reason - phosphate (it's stuffing up our rivers, oceans) uranium, lead, aluminium/steel (both need heaps of coal to convert raw material into finished product), oil, petrol, diesel, tin, etc, etc, etc.
Maybe you'll give up using your computer to trade stocks/post on HC - it's driven by electricity which is fueled by coal!
I'm all for governments bringing in alternative/clean energy (wind/solar) and hopefully they will
