From 1960 to 2005, coal use grew more or less steadily by 18 million tons per year. Regulation may have made a difference, since coal requires more extensive pollution controls than competing fuels. It then tread water for a few years and began a steep decline in 2008, going from half of U.S.

Since global and local pollutants are often byproducts of the same activities, mitigation policies for global warming emissions have the potential to simultaneously mitigate local air pollution 2. One good example of the nexus between global warming and local pollution is ground-level ozone. Bermix Studio/Unsplash PM2.5:

These air quality impacts are minimal compared with the major ozone reductions resulting from the 1998 SIP Call, which resulted in more than 80,000 megawatts of coal capacity being retrofitted with SCRs. The 2005 Clean Air Interstate Rule (CAIR) provided smaller but significant air quality improvements following its implementation in 2010.
