See where coal affects YOU.
We are in the midst of an historic transition: we are working toward a future where all communities use clean energy to drive American prosperity. Grassroots pressure combined with economic realities will end the coal industry, and consumers and workers alike are speeding this inevitable transition.
This map shows the existing coal plants in America and those that have retired or committed to retirement. We also track where gas pipelines and plants are threatening a clean energy future. We’re working toward a future where all these map circles show clean, renewable energy.
