Second, I added information about coal being a cheap energy source. With that being said, I do hope quick advances are made in solar energy in terms of its efficiency. I am not willing, however, to alter reality in order to try to make coal a more expensive form of energy that it actually is. I have also seen the poverty in coal producing areas of PA and I also know that a lot of seniors struggle to pay energy bills.

:The entire second paragraph is out of place, it should be further down the article since the main subject is coal mining, not the cost of coal. The first sentence of the second paragraph is still incorrect and contradicts the second sentence. At most coal is a cheap energy source for developing nations. Trump promised coal mining jobs, not the return of coal production. Because of automation and renewable energy, coal jobs will not recover, I challenge you to provide a realistic quote from an economist that says otherwise. If Trump was serious about the plight of unemployed coal miners, he’d encourage the affected states to provide career guidance and economic development in other forms of energy. Coal is on the way out; that is a fact that cannot be denied.--[[User:GinnyS|GinnyS]] ([[User talk:GinnyS|talk]]) 13:32, 4 July 2017 (EDT)
