Video: Coal Export Threatens the Northwest

New video shows risks of coal exports.

SwatchJunkies

Columbia Riverkeeper has a new video out showing the impacts of proposed coal export terminals in Oregon and Washington. It’s definitely worth four minutes of your time:

The video looks at the affected communities, the health impacts of coal dust, and the other impacts in the Northwest.

Here at Sightline, we’ve created a new repository for our work on the issue. And while you’re at it, check out the new Power Past Coal website that just debuted—chock full of info on coal exports and things you can do to prevent the region from becoming a new dealer for China’s coal habit.
