Reply to comment by SeeisforComedy in North Carolina Lake Sediments Show Decades of Coal Ash Contamination: An analysis of sediments from five North Carolina lakes near coal-burning power plants has found that coal ash pollution of surface waters has been more persistent and widespread than was previously known. by thinkB4WeSpeak
Burning coal produces ash with low-level radiation, however, almost every coal plant in the US in the past 15 years was forced to retrofit to capture ash and the only things emitted are water vapor and CO2.
Most of the contamination in the study is from previous decades.
I'm not suggesting we should keep burning coal, just clarifying.

Reply to comment by BookofBryce in Reynolds 3000ft plastic wrap box that’s been in my house since 1996. Finally used the last of it today by WannaHearALimerick
I've been re-using the same box with a slider for my saran wrap for at least 8 years. I just buy the large roll in the normal box then put it in the old box.
