The Trump administration’s push for coal could lead to the first new US plant to be built since 2013.
Steam rises from the Miller coal Power Plant in Adamsville, Alabama on April 11, 2021. The James H. Miller Jr. site faces no immediate shutdown threat and has the backing of many locals because of the jobs it offers -- despite sending about as much planet warming carbon dioxide into the sky last year as 3.7 million cars.

That ongoing battle will bring together world leaders this week in Washington as President Joe Biden works to revitalize a global effort left in chaos by his predecessor Donald Trump.
