SW: added Coal dust
*'''[[Coal and Native American tribal lands]]''' – 3,999 views (9/09), 6,352 page views (5/10) – key topic, needs regular additions. Needs a Navbar to connect to related articles. Needs more organizations and companies to be added to the “Related SourceWatch articles” section.
*'''[[Coal and transmission]]''' - This has become a controversial area within the no-coal movement. The most common point of view is that an expanded grid will allow renewable-rich locations such as the Southwest (thermal solar) or the Great Plains (wind) to ship their power to other areas. Also, that a better grid would be able to provide more flexibility and reliability as variable power sources like wind and solar are added. But some critics argue that building new transmission lines is an imposition on rural residents, that it is often a ruse for building more coal, and that it should be shown to be necessary before being pursued.
*'''[[Coal dust]]''' - This is an additional example of [[Environmental impacts of coal]]. Occurs especially at processing facilities (such as near the Marfork School), next to rail lines, and near coal piles at power plants (such as at the Crawford plant in Chicago).
* '''[[Coal mine reclamation]]''' - Appalachian Voices now has a website called "Reclamation Fail" with numerous photos of failed reclamation. We should link to that page and shw some of the pictures from it here.
*'''[[coalbed methane]]'''
