America’s dirty secret about big coal

One of the main things I love about living in Saratoga Springs is that we have world renowned thought and action leaders when it comes to energy and the environment.

In the coming weeks I will be introducing them to you and I know you’ll appreciate their perspective on where we are and where we are headed as a country and planet.

Here is a link to Big coal: The dirty secret behind America’s energy future, a book written by Saratoga resident Jeff Goodell.

You can listen to an interview with Jeff on NPR by clicking here.

I had the pleasure of meeting Jeff and seeing his amazing PowerPoint presentation which summarized his book.

This information was very transformative for me and I hope you are inspired to action by it as well.

Your thoughts and feedback are always welcome.

Come on America, we can do it!
