A symbol of the strangle-hold that fossil fuels have on our economy, protestors march in front of the Capitol Coal Plant in Washington DC. The protestors were calling for clean renewable energy. Two days before the planned protest, the US government announced that the plant would be converted to Natural Gas. Organizers cited this news as a partial, but incomplete victory - as Natural Gas is still a fossil fuel - and vowed to take on coal plants across the country.
