Video showing what clean coal proponents don't like to look at - massive spills of coal ash sludge that wreck the local landscape and pollute sources of drinking water with heavy metals like arsenic and mercury. This video includes footage of the fly ash sludge spill near Knoxville in December 2008, as well as footage from a similar spill, larger than the Exxon Valdez oil spill, that took place in Kentucky in the autumn of 2008.
