Robert Byrd, D-W.Va. Byrd, 92, a longtime opponent of environmental restrictions on his state's $3.5 billion coal industry, said this month, "The truth is that some form of climate legislation will likely become public policy" and will adversely affect coal mining, warning, "West Virginians can choose to anticipate change and adapt to it or resist and be overrun by it."
