路透华盛顿4月8日 - 美国总统特朗普周二签署了旨在提高煤炭产量的行政令，这是他采取的与全球遏制碳排放努力背道而驰的最新行动。
据美国能源信息署$(EIA)$，燃煤发电厂的发电量占美国总发电量的比例已从2000年的50%下降到不足20%。
特朗普在白宫称："我们正在让一个被遗弃的行业重新崛起。"
特朗普说："我们要让矿工们重新开始工作。"煤矿工人人数已从十年前的 7 万人减少到约 4 万人。
这些行政令包括努力挽救可能退役的燃煤电厂，援引1950 年《国防生产法》中的授权来提高煤炭产量。
行政令还指示能源部长赖特Chris Wright确定钢铁生产中使用的煤炭是否属于 "关键矿产"。如果将冶金用煤归入 "关键矿产 "类别，将为使用紧急权力提高产量创造条件。
另一项命令要求美国司法部长确定各州阻碍煤炭等能源开发的气候法，并试图阻止这些法律的实施。(完)
