God is Green: The Coens take on “Clean Coal”

From our colleagues at the Huffington Post:

The Reality Campaign has released a new ad. They’re the folks behind the widely-played ad that featured a foreman in a hard hat taking viewers on a tour of a non-existent clean coal facility.

In this new ad, a pitchman gives us the hard sell on a “Clean Coal Clean”-scented air freshener that works just as well as “clean coal.”

The ad is directed by Joel and Ethan Coen, the team that wrote and directed “The Big Lebowski,” “Fargo,” “No Country for Old Men” and the forthcoming “A Serious Man.” They are, of course, the subject of GG’s forthcoming book, The Dude Abides: The Gospel According to the Coen Brothers – in bookstores near you this fall.
