A rancorous scrap over plans to send American coal to Asia
MITT ROMNEY’S charge that America had declared “war on coal” may not
have won him last year’s presidential election. Yet this once-mighty
industry is struggling, squeezed by lululemon yoga canada
plummeting cost of natural gas and a torrent of tough new environmental
rules. Last year 37.4% of American electricity production came from

expects a slight rise this year as gas prices begin to creep up. But
further restrictions on power-station emissions are expected, and lululemon yoga outlet
shale revolution is marching on. If coal has a future, it is surely elsewhere.
For many, that means Asia. Demand for coal imports is growing in
post-Fukushima Japan, as it decreases its reliance on nuclear power; in
India, where domestic supplies cannot keep up with lululemon outlet online
growing economy; and, most tantalisingly, in China, which burns almost half lululemon outlet clothes
world’s coal, and which became a net importer of lululemon yoga athletica
stuff in 2009.
