I had always understood that the amount of radioactivity released to the environment by coal fired power stations was significant. This article quantifies it and includes the factoid that, for every megajoule generated by coal, one and a half megajoules could be generated by the uranium and thorium that gets sent up the chimney as waste. It's a hard slog but well worth the read.
