Coal coloring book teaches kids all about dirty energy

The coal-industry group Families Organized to Represent the Coal Economy, which doesn’t actually allow families to join, has a wonderfully crappy coloring book for children. Let’s have a look!

1. That may be the absolute crappiest coloring book ever.
It's hard to believe it isn't a parody. As for "educational", aside from telling children that coal "comes from the ground", and somehow, mysteriously "makes electricity", there isn't any information there.
