Yes, like something out of Lord of the Rings or worse, and millions of acres of Appalachia are being flattened, and pushed into streams and hollows to strip out the coal.
It's unbelievable.Think about the mountain culture lost. Think about the endangered wildlife... and think about tens of millions of tons of rock and debris bulldozed by machines as big as a post-office into the ancient valleys and hollows of some of the most beautiful back-country to be found east of the Mississippi. Never to be seen again...
The idiot in the White House lifted a quarter-century BAN on this evil practice in 2002, to please his Masters. Please click the link and let your Congressperson know that it's time to STOP IT NOW FOREVER.
