Clean Coal Clean!

This parody ad being run in the United States by Reality is genius:


It's directed by the Coen brothers and is a response to heavy advertising by the coal industry in favour of 'clean coal'. There is also a great animation on Reality's main site with a bird flying into various 'realities' about coal (- which, if 'clean coal' continues to be considered as an option in the US, should maybe be changed to a little animated flying Obama hitting a couple of those realities and then finally figuring it out ...?) You can keep updated on how this campaign progresses through Reality's blog. Of course a future without the coal industry is possible, as Greece has just shown, no matter how appealing the Coen brothers make 'Clean Coal Clean' seem ...
