http://ilovemountains.org/news/743 END MOUNTAINTOP REMOVAL COAL MINING IN APPALACHIA!

It’s not OK for mining companies to destroy these rich forests because…..there’s no economic growth there afterward? If all the over 1,000,000 mined acres were used for rampant development and “economic growth” without mining would that be any more acceptable? Kinda missing the point aren’t you? A priceless forest second to the Amazon in diversity is being treated like GARBAGE!
