Trump’s $625 million coal bailout draws fire from climate and health advocates
Administration announces $625 million for coal plant life-extensions while Interior opens 13.1 million acres for leasing and EPA scraps pollution limits; advocates warn the public will “pay the price” through higher bills, dirtier air and stalled clean energy.
Donald Trump's government has announced that it will enable 5.2 million hectares of federal land (almost like all Aragon) for coal mining and will allocate $625 million to reactivate or modernize coal power plants, in a new demonstration that it is willing to keep this highly polluting and climate-threatening industry alive, which in recent years had begun a slow decline in favour of renewable energies.
