These plants burn coal to heat water and turn it into steam. The steam turns turbines connected to generators that produce electricity. In 2011, US coal plants emitted up to 1.7 billion tons of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. The burning of coal and other fossil fuels has resulted in acid rain and air pollution.
