Zero-emissions Coal

Saw a pointer to the Zero Emissions Coal Alliance. This looks like a promising energy technology, given the abundance of coal. However, this ignores the problem of extracting the coal, which is a social, medical, and/or environmental disaster depending on the method. I don’t want the tops of any more of my beloved mountains to be pushed into the valleys, and I don’t want debt-enslaved workers dying of black lung.
