1. Coal plays a huge part in global warming.
2. Coal can have negative effects on us, such as, acid rain, tainted water, and increased risks of lung cancer for coal plant workers.
3. Coal takes about 1 million years to form, so it is non-renewable
4. In 2006 the world used over 6,000,000,000,000 kilograms of coal.
5. Coal produces 40% of the worlds electricity.
6. Coal also produces 70% of China's electricity.
7. Different types of coal contain different amounts of carbon.
8. Coal is mined in 27 US states.

9. Burning coal releases 10,000 tons of sulfur dioxide every year.
10. Young and adult fish are drawn to coal intake in the millions, those fish who become trapped are often injured or killed before they can escape.
