A spout and a related negative comment both alluded to the fact

Ocean City - A spout and a related negative comment both alluded to the fact that coal is an outdated energy source. It is also a plentiful energy source, that provides jobs and with proper management can be a cleaner energy source. People can babble about geothermal heating and solar or wind power all they want. Unless they are driving electric cars and living in houses powered by photovoltaic cells, they are spouting hypocrisy. Ever since the industrial revolution we have been poisoning this planet, but luxuriating in the conveniences and comforts that our pollution has produced.
