Can you believe the coal industry has such deeply passionate volunteers? They're so inspired, they will even show up at EPA hearings to advocate against carbon standards. If you find it hard to believe, check this photo.  

An unnamed coal industry group posted an ad this week on Craiglist offering $50 to anyone who would attend the EPA hearing in Chicago wearing a pro-coal T-shirt. In addition to the hundreds of activists who showed up in Chicago to support the new EPA carbon safeguards, those in attendance were greeted by another group as well: paid “coal industry supporters.” Fortunately, this story has received a lot of attention. Be on the look out!
