Diesel or coal, all bad for you and amazed all of us have lived as long as we have. Some of us even survived the school playground with a jungle gym made out of galvanized water pipe.
Burning coal.....produces particulate and gas emissions that may contain a number of harmful chemicals, such as benzene, carbon monoxide, formaldehyde, and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. This statement from some site about burning coal, but the key take away is 'may contain'. Guess coal loads need to come with an ingredient label.
