Quote of the Day

"The horrific West Virginia mine explosion that killed at least 25 miners is a tragic but clear example of a non-climate reason to decarbonize. Dirty, destructive, dangerous, deadly - there are plenty of reasons to transition away from fossil fuels." - The Breakthrough Institute Blog (emphasis mine).

Add to that the oil spill near the Great Barrier Reef, the oil spill in Louisiana, the oil refinery explosion in Washington and the coal mine flood in China - all from the past week.
