It's bad for the environment.

We're going to replace it with solar and wind, and it's the right thing to do.

They're always surprised when the town of coal miners is angrily against it.

Now, the reality is they're not anti-winds, nor are they anti-solar.

All I know is I'm a coal miner.

My father was a coal miner.

My father's father was a coal miner.

All I know is how to do coal mining.

And all I know is this mine down the street produces income for me to take care of my family.

And you're coming in here and say, we're going to take your income away.

We're not getting rid of coal.

I'm taking rid of your livelihood.

And you have no discernible skill set.

What you get is fear.

And when somebody doesn't feel seen or heard and they feel afraid that you're coming in to take something away from them, they're going to put up a wall and say, you cannot do that.

Right?

That's the same thing going on here, which is all the discussion is all the job that's going to take away.

All the things it's going to destroy.

Right?

And so what it's producing is fear.
