8 Years After Superstorm Sandy, New York State "Considering" Whether To Divest From Coal

[hatrack]

New York Comptroller Thomas DiNapoli will review 27 thermal coal mining companies to see if the state should divest its pension fund from businesses that contribute to climate change.

DiNapoli says the companies face the greatest risk as states turn to cleaner, renewable energies. He has called coal mining a “bad investment” for New York.

The companies were selected because at least 10% of their revenue is from mining coal that is burned in power plants to produce electricity.

Leave the rest of the nasty shit in the ground, and our next generations may have a slim chance.
