Power plants fired by coal produce many pollutants (SOx, NOx, radiation, particulate, Mercury etc.) the amounts vary by the size and fuel used at the site (not all coal produced the same contaminants).
See the Links for data on typical coal plants.
fossil fuels contain coal, if you burn coal it produce's steam,then the steam turn's the turbine in a generator to produce electricity.That's the cost of fossil fuels ,that they can produce electricity.

Sulfur oxides
COAL
Mostly coal
A coal plant can produce different amount of energy. It depends on the size of the plant.
Not necessarily
pollutes environment
A power plant in which coal is burned to move generating turbines to produce electricity.
Some disadvantages of clean coal is that it pollutes the air.
it pollutes air when burnedIt pollutes the air when burned
A power plant in which coal is burned to move generating turbines to produce electricity.
A geothermal power plant does not use coal to generate energy. Coal would be superfluous.
coal pollutes the air by smoke and it burns easily plus cows eat grass
The good about coal is that it is a source of energy while the bad is that it pollutes air.
because coal pollutes and we have unlimited wind
Lets start off with the dangers of both Coal and nuclear power plants: A coal power plant pollutes a lot of greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide, which is causing global warming and climate change. A Nuclear power plant can lead to a meltdown which can kill from radiation exposure, but does not pollute any CO2's. So in short a Nuclear power plant is 1% to 50% better than a coal power plant.
