Coal is a source of energy for emissions. Coal produces carbon dioxide on burning and leaves ash as a residue called fly ash.

● Carbon dioxide contributes to the greenhouse effect and is responsible for rising average earth temperatures.

● Polar ice melting causes ocean levels to rise and low lying coastal areas to submerge.

● Fly ash contains very fine particulate matter that causes human breathing problems. Another environmental issue is the dumping of fly ash.
