Coal Mine Explosion in Tajikistan Kills Six Afghan Workers
#CoalIndustry
#coalindustry involves the extraction, processing, and sale of coal, a #fossilfuel once central to the Industrial Revolution and electricity generation. While
Dine' tell Navajo Council 'NO COAL!'
The Monster has returned, and it is even more grotesque than the one before. Dine' remember forced relocation, the loss of water and medicine plants, and the loss of loved ones. Navajos say 'No!; to Trump and Navajo President Nygren's push for coal.

#ForestLake, #NavajoNation -- "Dine' told the #NavajoNationCouncil that the #CoalIndustry has cost them their aquifer water, and their health. Combined with #UraniumMining, they have lost their loved ones to widespread #cancer and #BlackLungDisease killing their people.
"Dine' remembered #ForcedRelocation and the stripping of the #forest by #PeabodyCoal, during a hearing on Friday. The Navajo Council was told to stand up for #FutureGenerations, or step aside.
" 'The Navajo Nation has provided coal to the big cities for decades, while the people of #BlackMesa have nothing to show for it," Dine' from Black Mesa told the Council.
" 'We are supposed to be the Protectors of the Earth.'
"#LouiseBenally [#KleeBenally's aunt] of Big Mountain told the hearing that you can't trust what #Trump is telling you because he'll change whatever he says in the next sentence. Louise said he has no concept of what being a human is.
" 'Keep your prayers and your language, those are the things that really matter for us #IndigenousPeople,' said Louise. She and her family spent their lives resisting forced relocation brought by Peabody Coal's mining on Black Mesa.
" 'Everyone was opposed to another #CoalMining, it's not good for anything, and it is causing #GreenhouseGases to continue to rise,' Louise told Censored News.
" 'Doctor Nygren doesn't know that. He needs a hogan level of education.'
" '#ClimateChange is so, important to every living thing, we need to be finding solutions not making things worse.' "

#CoalMining Devastated the #Water and Brought #BlackLungDisease -- #ForestLake Hearing on #Coal

"On Friday, May 30, 2025, the Office of the Speaker held a public hearing on coal at the Forest Lake Chapter House in Forest Lake (Tsiiyi’ Be’ak’id), Arizona. This open forum allowed participants to share their input and comments regarding the Federal Executive Order 14241, “Reinvigorating America’s Beautiful Clean Coal Industry,” aimed at amending federal policies to boost the #CoalIndustry. This public hearing came after community opposition and frustration to Navajo Nation President #BuuNygren ’s support of President #Trump’s executive orders to prop up coal. The public hearing generated over 50 public comments, more than 169 people in attendance.
"Tó Nizhóní Ání executive director #NicoleHorseherder was one of the first to provide comments in opposition of coal siting the decades-long impacts on the land and water. “The bottom line is coal mining has had adverse impacts to the aquifers and that’s Navajo water. What is Navajo going to do about it?' said Nicole as she provided a brief overview of the coal mining and reclamation issues at the #KayentaMine.
"The federal agencies responsible for overseeing reclamation and cleanup acknowledged, verbally, that their duties are to the shallow #aquifers impacted by coal but mentioned the deep aquifers are the responsibility of the Department of Interior. These are just one of many issues impacting the #BlackMesa region, which played host to the coal industry for over 50 years."

🔥 Anthracite Market: Powering Industries with High-Quality Coal 🔥
The global anthracite market is expanding as industries seek high-carbon, low-impurity coal for energy production, steel manufacturing, and filtration applications.

Environment Minister #Tanya_Plibersek and the #ALP government approve four more #CoalMine expansions in these lands now called Australia.
They claim that as these four coal mines are (mainly) extracting #MetallurgicalCoal, that they are unavoidable and necessary, as there is not a currently viable alternative to metallurgical coal in steel-making.
But there are alternatives. They are only considered 'non-viable' because under current economic practices they are not yet as cheap as metallurgical coal. And they only seem to be more expensive than coal due to coal not having to pay its true costs. And coal doesn't have a price anywhere near reflective of its myriad actual harms (immediate and long-term, local and planetary) since the Australian government joins a globally dominant delusion that #externalities don't need to be considered when there's masses of short-term profit to be had by burning our collective future.
If the #CoalIndustry were held responsible for the toxic and climate-disrupting rubbish it dumps (for free!) into the global atmosphere, then it would rapidly become apparent that burning more coal, whether in thermal energy production or in making steel, is utterly unaffordable.

Taxpayers are usually the ones who are on the hook for nuclear -- especially cleanup or accidents. #PriceAndersonAct
Coalition's #nuclear plan is 'virtually impossible' without #taxpayer funding

"Earlier this year, Victorian Liberal leader John Pesutto told ABC Radio Melbourne that he did not support the construction of nuclear reactors in the #LaTrobeValley, the site of existing coal-fired power stations.
"Queensland's Liberal-National leader David Crisafulli said nuclear was not on his agenda 'because it just won't happen until Canberra sorts that out'.
"Some of the most vocal opposition has come from New South Wales' former Liberal treasurer Matt Kean, who dismissed nuclear as 'hugely #expensive' and a 'Trojan horse' for the #CoalIndustry.
In addition, the nation's leading "scientific body, the CSIRO, says it would take at least 15 years to build a large-scale #NuclearPowerPlant — and it would cost twice as much to produce electricity through nuclear reactors when compared with #renewable sources."
If you're in #BritishColumbia - read this. Especially if you were ever a Horganized crimes against humanity supporter. For folks still unaware, past #BCNDP #BCPremier quit & used #cronyism to get his groomed guy Eby in. Horgan lied about why he quit & telling public it was to take better care of his health & spend more time w/family. He's working as a #Coalindustry consultant now.
I predicted he'd #hoodwink ppl just like this, over 2 yrs ago. I predicted he'd lie/quit & work for #ecocidal corp.
Looking at the 1930s English land utilisation maps uploaded by the National Library of Scotland. My dad was a youngster then, and I can see the area where he was born and grew up in West Yorkshire, and how it was being used then. https://maps.nls.uk/series/land-utilisation-survey/ #Maps #Farming #Agriculture #England #EnglishHistory #History #HistoricalGeography #Geography #WestYorkshire #Yorkshire #Landscape #1930s #CoalMining #CoalIndustry
❝ Cleanliness is important to the successful functioning of such a delicate apparatus, and the employees take pride in their work. They often lug up a trash bag filled with rags, and use Simple Green cleaner to leave the towers gleaming in the sun. This is the first generation of West Virginians to trade work underground for work up high. ❞ → https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2022/11/28/the-blade-runners-powering-a-wind-farm
