<br/><br/> "The smokestacks loom like misplaced skyscrapers above the forested banks of the Ohio River, rising 75 stories over white-hot coal furnaces. From boilers fueled by these fires, electricity flows to millions of homes and factories. From the smokestacks, a plume of soot and chemicals flows into the sky above Ohio and rises into the jet stream. The river of air carries the pollution eastward, across West Virginia and Pennsylvania and into New Jersey, sickening children and shortening lives all along the way." (THE RECORD) This article explains the problems caused by aging power plants on the Ohio River in the Midwest that send air pollutants to the Northeast.
