Bull's Eye: Definition Of Irony: One Of Only Two States Since 2007 To Increase Coal Demand Also Killed The Keystone -- April 28, 2016

I can't make this stuff up.


One of only two states to increase coal demand since 2007 killed the Keystone -- what a great legacy.

Look at Texas, Ohio, and Pennsylvania: ground zero for shale natural gas. (A reminder to the voters in Pennsylvania and Ohio, often considered to be swing states: both Bernie and Hillary want to ban fracking. I assume that would take us back to Angela Merkel and coal.)

I could be wrong, but I assume the "pipeline activity" explains Georgia's huge decline in coal demand, also. California seems to be a bit slow to get the memo despite all the talk. Even Iowa, with all its wind fame, isn't among the top five.
