Joe Lucas, vice president of communications for the American Coalition for Clean Coal Electricity (ACCCE):
"When I look at what a majority of Americans say is clean coal, the fact that we're using technology today to reduce the emission of hazardous air pollutants, and the fact that we will be able to over the next ten years to begin to bring technologies into the marketplace to capture and store carbon, that's what the American people believe that clean coal is."
IOW, "Clean Coal" has nothing to do with sequestering carbon dioxide (which is technologically just about nowhere) as far as the coal industry is concerned, but they don't mind people getting a different impression in their ads even as they claim people are not getting that impression.
