Most awesome holiday-themed tie-in ever, from the Union of Concerned Scientists. For generations, children have been threatened with coal in their stocking as punishment for being naughty—but giving kids coal fired power plants is a punishment that can last 40 years or more.[More:]...Now, utilities across the country are pushing to build more than 150 new coal-fired power plants. Most of these plants would use old “pulverized coal” technology—designed to last at least 40-50 years. But it’s not too late to tell Congress our kids deserve better than coal.

I had just decided this morning that anything other than a simple "Happy holidays" from a business or organization was tacky, but I totally love how clever this one is. Way to go, concerned scientists!
