Environmental Movie Night: Coal Country

Learn the truth about modern coal mining and its impact. Hear the story from people directly involved - working miners and activists battling the coal companies in Appalachia.  It’s a “new civil war,” as families and communities are deeply split over mountaintop removal mining (MTR).  Residents endure health problems, dirty water in their wells, dust and grime on their floors. The miners are frightened that, without mountaintop removal mining, they’ll lose their jobs and won’t be able to feed their families. What does this mean for America and the rest of the world?  The coal industry is spending millions to promote what it calls “clean coal.”  Is it achievable?  At what cost?
