During 2021 America’s railroads shipped 3,300,000 rail car loads of coal.

Each standard rail car can hold up to 240,000 pounds (that’s 120 tons!) of coal.
-
One standard coal car can hold enough coal to power 19 homes for an entire year.

In 2021 railroads shipped enough coal to power 62,700,000 homes for an entire year.

“Anybody who can go down 300 to 3,000 feet in a mine can sure as hell learn to program as well.” - Joe Biden, Dec 30, 2019

“We’re going to be shutting [coal] plants down all across America…” - Joe Biden, Nov 4, 2022
-
During 2021 America’s coal industry lost 7,125 jobs, or 11.8% of their total, mostly union, workers.
What would be the fastest way to shut down coal in the United States, immediately creating a crisis of energy right before winter which would force people to accept “Green Energy“?
Shut down America’s rail system by having the rail Unions go on strike.
Just that simple.
