Brunner Island Coal Fired Power Plant, York Haven, PA
What’s that smell? Why are we all getting sick?
In a small Island on the great Susquehanna River lie 3 miles from each other, 3 power plants, each with its own pros and cons; the first, 3 mile island nuclear power plant, in Goldsboro, PA - a plant that almost melted down and could have melted all of us down - Unit 1 is still operating as a nuclear plant, while Unit 2 is not a nuclear plant anymore (accident in march, 1979). The second is Conewago Hydropower plant, it is a clean and safe source of energy, and in the case of the Susquehanna River, which is already so polluted, and whose wildlife must be bionic by now, it leaves a small environmental impact. The third and last is Brunner Island Coal Fired power plant, which according to many sources (you can google it - look at results 3 - inf. if you look at results 1 and 2 you will be directed to the operating website, which of course will boast how clean its own plant is - that is BS) is one of the 50 dirtiest, most polluting coal power plant in America.
