    Centralia is a big problem, centralia is a town in the USA which is built on a layer of coal, the coal has been on fire for a while and the town is prety much dead, according to some scientists there is enough coal under the town to burn for £1000 years

    Who ere thinks that hydrogen fuel is a good idea, guess what, one of the best ways that hydrogen is produced is by etracting it from methane and therefore releasing CO2 , genius

    Coal burns very well in a fire, so its good if your camping. but it has a very low efficiency rate. of the coal that burns only 20% is turned into usefull energy.

    Depends on which coal you're talking about. I think peat and lignite have poor thermal conversion. Bituminous coal is probably the one you're talking about. Anthracite burns cleanest.
