  <title>Coal at Sunset ENCORE: The Decision and the Cost (S1 Ep.1)</title>
  <description> It’s&amp;amp;nbsp;been almost five years since&amp;amp;nbsp;our very first season:&amp;amp;nbsp;Coal at Sunset: A Colorado Town in Transition.&amp;amp;nbsp;In 2021,&amp;amp;nbsp;we&amp;amp;nbsp;went to&amp;amp;nbsp;Craig,&amp;amp;nbsp;Colorado,&amp;amp;nbsp;as it grappled with the forthcoming closure&amp;amp;nbsp;of&amp;amp;nbsp;the&amp;amp;nbsp;coal plant and mine that economically anchors&amp;amp;nbsp;the town.&amp;amp;nbsp;But&amp;amp;nbsp;in 2026, a new federal intervention requires the plant to remain open for the time being, putting the town in limbo.&amp;amp;nbsp;So,&amp;amp;nbsp;we&amp;amp;nbsp;are&amp;amp;nbsp;re-releasing&amp;amp;nbsp;our original story about&amp;amp;nbsp;a town on the front lines of the energy transition.&amp;amp;nbsp;Over the next three&amp;amp;nbsp;encore&amp;amp;nbsp;episodes&amp;amp;nbsp;from our archive,&amp;amp;nbsp;you’ll&amp;amp;nbsp;meet the people on the ground grappling with the move away from coal.&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;   In this&amp;amp;nbsp;episode, hear from the CEO at the center of that decision, a coal worker bracing for change, and one local business owner&amp;amp;nbsp;who's&amp;amp;nbsp;already looking for ways to reinvent the town's identity. Along the way,&amp;amp;nbsp;learn more about the science and economics of coal amidst a rapidly changing renewable energy landscape.&amp;amp;nbsp;   Created by the Institute for Science &amp;amp;amp; Policy at the Denver Museum of Nature &amp;amp;amp; Science and produced in partnership with House of Pod.&amp;amp;nbsp;   Learn more&amp;amp;nbsp;about the podcast at&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;coalatsunset.org&amp;amp;nbsp;and&amp;amp;nbsp;lawsofnotion.org.&amp;amp;nbsp;   Sign up for the&amp;amp;nbsp;Institute for Science &amp;amp;amp; Policy’s mailing list.&amp;amp;nbsp;   Follow us on&amp;amp;nbsp;Twitter,&amp;amp;nbsp;Facebook,&amp;amp;nbsp;LinkedIn,&amp;amp;nbsp;YouTube.&amp;amp;nbsp;   If you like our work, consider making a tax-deductible&amp;amp;nbsp;donation.&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;   The Institute for Science &amp;amp;amp; Policy is a catalyst for thoughtful dialogue, working toward solutions&amp;amp;nbsp;on&amp;amp;nbsp;society’s greatest challenges with scientific thinking, empathy, and inclusivity.&amp;amp;nbsp;  </description>
