- seanmcdirmid 13y agoDepends on (a) the quality of the coal (chinese coal tends to be quite bad, American coal is much cleaner) and the quality of the emissions equipment in whatever is burning the coal (Chinese environment regulations are bad, plant owners tend to skim and use outdated equipment). Compare to the US or Germany, where coal is still heavily used, but the environmental impact is much reduced.
