Why ‘Santa Should Phase Out Coal’ for Naughty Kids This Christmas
On Amazon, you can buy red velvet bags emblazoned with “you’ve been naughty” and stuffed with pieces of real coal.

Pediatrician Tamsin Holland Brown is co-author of an opinion piece published in The British Medical Journal on Monday calling for an end to coal as a Christmas punishment.
Holland Brown works for Cambridgeshire Community Services NHS Trust in the UK. Her co-authors are her daughters Lilac and Marigold, who “contributed to the content, design and structure of this article, defining matters of importance to children.”

Meanwhile, if you can take it, here’s NBC “News” linking the coldest Christmas in 40 years to climate apocalypse.
