There loss of clean water and air are inexcusable. Also, the hugh decreases in the value of their properties is unconcienceable as a result of the coal companies destruction of their environment. Where is justice and fairness for these people in Sylvester?

I’m going to tell Con Edison to stop using coal. I’m switching to wind power sources on my electric bill. I’ve shared this site with my friends and family. I’m going to contact my legislators too!

Cleaning the black dirt off the deck is a constant reminder. I love the mountains and am truly saddened by the destruction that is constantly on the move (toward my home). Thank you for the work that you are doing to preserve what is left of the beautiful WV hills.
