- Trump uses wartime powers to dole out $700 million to ‘clean, beautiful’ coal
President Donald Trump is using the Defense Production Act to allocate $700 million to coal-fired power plants, labeling them 'clean, beautiful coal.' The funds aim to protect 14 coal plants, 42 coalmines, and build new facilities, including an export terminal in Oakland, California, and a plant in Alaska. The initiative supports coal industry revival despite coal being the most carbon-dense fossil fuel and a major contributor to climate and health issues.
