- In this documentary on coal, we examine the mining methods, common applications, history, science and future outlook on this often hated form of energy.
Love it or hate it, of all the energy sources currently in use on planet earth, none have such a long history or deep controversy as coal.
As one of the earliest sources of energy, coal has proved to be a reliable performer over time but carries some concerns when it comes to air pollution and climate change.
How much of the electricity generated today is powered by coal and will it ever become obsolete? How is coal mined? What is coal made of? We explore the science, mining methodology and history of coal in this documentary.

Excellent video. Eager to watch more!! Well done
Thank you for watching!
Wow! What an excellent and well made video. You deserve many more views for such quality work. Kudos my friend.
why is it hard to imagine running the exhaust through a water filter to help clean the air
Most pollutants can be reduced considerably by equipment, including carbon dioxide, but this adds cost. New coal plants generally control sulphur, carbon monoxide, mercury, NOx. Carbon dioxide is quite expensive and is rarely done.
This is the best video about coal on internet, thanks
Thank you, really appreciate it and glad you found value in the video!
Extremely well made documentary. Thanks.
Appreciate it Mr. Churchill, thank you for all you've done.
The negative is that the author mixed useful information with woke green religion.
Excellent work, captivating!
Thank you!
Very Good. But, failed to mention all of the non-energy uses of coal and coal derivatives, including cosmetics, medicines, and other consumer products. Also, that the production of steel and cement are almost entirely dependent upon the use of coal due to the constant high temperatures required
Great points, this was my first documentary so there's definitely a lot I would change if I did it again. Perhaps an update will be made in the future.
Fascinating stuff
Thanks for watching!
WOW SO MUCH INFORMATION
I have to create 15 multiple-choice questions based on this video yippie!!
Really? Is that for a school project?
My favorite Channel
Thank you so much!
They should have built energy efficient houses, buildings, etc..
So I have a question on this on your coal mine out here I mean some of these guys got these analogies of these world scores did you ever try to allow one of them to try to station inside of one and see if they could develop more than just coal or try to see if that's what somebody did to take away a long time ago or if that was the idea and something else was supposed to run back through to feel back up before it could be taken out of
In that understanding it's to to make sure certain sizes continue growth because if not sizes will have to restart and some of those years was monumental amounts or you might owe other people in those understandings
Nice vedio
"In any system of energy, Control is what consumes energy the most.
Time taken in stocking energy to build an energy system, adding to it the time taken in building the system will always be longer than the entire useful lifetime of the system.
No energy store holds enough energy to extract an amount of energy equal to the total energy it stores.
No system of energy can deliver sum useful energy in excess of the total energy put into constructing it.
This universal truth applies to all systems.
Energy, like time, flows from past to future".
nice
Most beautiful
Please make video on cement and uranium
I have one on Uranium, you can search it on my channel.
No Fossil Fuel will EVER be phased out(Due to cost) However, it WILL be used much less because of Nuclear and Synthetic fuels. There will always be third world countries that need cheaper fuel.
Completely agree.
I am a retired colliery officer from India. It is good to visualize the past.
Now 90pct of coal are produced from open cut or strip mining.coal production worldwide is on decline due to pollution and environmental issue.
Need 4k
Coal will be here the rest of anyones life that watches this video.
Agree with you there.
I was so captivated and interested until the word "IRON" was spoken. Never heard it pronounced "eyerun". Where in the heck are you from son?
We absolutely need coal so that we can all watch the idiot box all night long.

The cheapest electricity source is renewable
This is so insanely false it's laughable.
@@CommodityCulture laugh all you want but it is true and renewables make up 84% of new power US power capacity and newly installed solar PV and wind capacity have saved EU electricity consumers 100billion€ during 2021-2023 by displacing fossil fuels according to the International Energy Agency.
And that's just two examples of hundreds. And dude you don't have to tell me anything on coal. I come from a coal miner family. And my home region was dependent on coal. But now everyone is poor, because everyone thought coal is gonna bring money for the future. It's exactly the opposite we wasted money on mining coal, polluted our air, water and land and it wasn't profitable anymore and now my region has to pay millions so we don't sink into the ground and drink coal water. I know my stuff, and I know coal is complete BS in comparison to renewables.
Thankyou for good video & information
Thanks for watching!
We leave it behind or it kills us. Either way we'll quit burning it.
Nope, coal use will continue for the foreseeable future. While people in Western countries virtue signal about cutting emissions, China and India have already announced massive build outs of their coal capacity. It will not be stopped, sorry.
@@CommodityCulture The heat will kill us first. Then the coal burning stops. Nice plan you fools.
Why r u saying iron like that? 😂
1000 Million years ago ? Sure
The Earth is only 8,500 years old
Well, i was willing to watch until you started in with the climate change crap!
