The United States has the largest coal resources in the world, currently destined for burning to generate electricity, putting huge quantities of particulates, carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, mercury and other contaminants into the atmosphere. This is not science fiction. Carbon fiber and carbon nanotubes are presently used in reinforced plastics, heat-resistant composites, cell phone components, fishing rods, golf club shafts, bicycle frames, sports car bodies, the fuselage of the Boeing 787 Dreamliner, pool cue sticks and to reinforce concrete and grey cast iron. forbes/sites/jamesconca/2013/07/14/coal-doesnt-have-to-die-we-can-make-furniture-out-of-it/
