last month i heard about mountain top removal as a method for gathering coal to fulfill our energy needs from will. essentially this is someone's brilliant idea that, instead of mining for coal resources, we will just blow the tops off of mountains to get to the coal. which, as you might imagine, changes the landscape. here today, gone tomorrow. anyway, will links to a site (www.ilovemountains.org) that will tell you where your coal connection comes from. sad to know that ours comes from a mountain top mound in kentucky.
i'd suggest everyone get to know a little more about where their energy comes from. and if you are one of those people that enjoys mountain views or scenic drives.. i might suggest you sign up to help make a break from mountain top removal. not to mention, lower your carbon consumption.
