Toward a global coal mining moratorium? A comparative analysis of coal mining policies in the USA, China, India and Australia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
To stop global warming at well below 2° C, the bulk of the world’s fossil fuel reserves will have to be left in the ground. Coal is the fossil fuel with the greatest proportion that cannot be used, and various advocacy groups are campaigning for a ban on
