Lehman's (click here) now offers anthracite coal by the pallet. With few impurities, this clean-burning coal has the highest carbon count of any type of coal.
I cannot believe someone is still selling this. Cost? $399.00 per pallet or 2400 pounds.

It is by far the most deadliest form of energy in the world.

Coal is the largest source of electricity across the world, (click here) mainly because it is abundant and cheap. But a string of coal mining accidents this week has served as a stark reminder that coal also remains the world’s most deadly source of energy.
In West Virginia, two miners were killed on May 12 while performing a particularly dangerous form of coal mining known as “retreat mining.” The miners were removing pillars of coal that hold up the roof of a mine, which causes a burst of coal to shoot down from the roof or wall, which is then extracted. This time, the operation didn’t work as planned and the two men were trapped and killed.
The following day, at least 238 miners in Turkey were trapped underground and killed following an explosion and fire at a power distribution unit. The death toll is expected to climb....
