Duke execs knew of coal ash violations for years, unsealed court documents assert



Sorry to keep saying the same thing over and over, but coal-dependence goes hand in hand with complicity and criminality.  It is embedded in the culture of the business, but more crucially, it is embedded in the structural contradictions of the business.  In order to keep burning and emitting, you must break rules, both legal and ethical.  We will explore further, and have plenty of local cases that further prove that these are not exceptions, but generalized characteristics of the industry.
