Burning coal is a leading cause of smog, acid rain, global warming, and
air toxics. In an average year, a typical coal plant
generates:
3,700,000 tons of carbon dioxide (CO2), the primary
human cause of global warming--as much carbon dioxide
as cutting down 161 million trees.
10,000 tons of sulfur dioxide (SO2), which causes acid
rain that damages forests, lakes, and buildings, and
forms small airborne particles that can penetrate deep
into lungs.
500 tons of small airborne particles, which can cause
chronic bronchitis, aggravated asthma, and premature
death, as well as haze obstructing visibility.
10,200 tons of nitrogen oxide (NOx), as much as would
be emitted by half a million late-model cars. NOx leads to
formation of ozone (smog) which inflames the lungs,
burning through lung tissue making people more
susceptible to respiratory illness.
720 tons of carbon monoxide (CO), which causes
headaches and place additional stress on people with
heart disease.
220 tons of hydrocarbons, volatile organic compounds
(VOC), which form ozone.
170 pounds of mercury, where just 1/70th of a teaspoon
deposited on a 25-acre lake can make the fish unsafe to
eat.
225 pounds of arsenic, which will cause cancer in one out
of 100 people who drink water containing 50 parts per
billion.
114 pounds of lead, 4 pounds of cadmium, other toxic
heavy metals, and trace amounts of uranium.
