> Most of the power in the US comes from coal

No, that's not true. Most power comes from sources other than coal. Yes, coal is the largest single source but it is < 50% and decreasing every year.

Decreasing perhaps, but it's being offset by natural gas, which is yet another hydrocarbon and comes with its own slew of hazards and problems.

Methane is less harmful than coal by far.

That's good, because the next century will likely be fueled by Methane Hydrates from the ocean floor.
