No, it's not. Steel production requires coal to produce coke and that isn't going away. Cement production requires fly ash. There are other products that require coal as a raw material too.

Despite a campaign promise to put coal miners back to work and support "beautiful clean coal," President Donald Trump is on track to leave the White House with the nation posting the lowest coal production and jobs figures in recent history.

Average quarterly coal mining employment fell 23.6% from the first quarter of 2017, when Trump took office, to the most recent quarter. Coal production is down 31.5% in the third quarter compared to the first quarter of 2017.

Way to change the subject! This is nothing more than a red herring defense. Meaningless.

30% of the worlds steel is made now without coal and that number is growing.

That other 70% isn't and needs coal for the forseeable future. Electric arc furnaces require lots of electricity and solar and wind won't supply it.

The OP was about the Disney "Out and About" event. The comments about Disney being dirty and expensive did not address what the poster wrote, either. More slight of hand?

Corporations have generally betrayed us...they are not on our side, they do not support the Constitution, and as America collapses into depravation many if not most of them with either close or leave.
