  • Mountains in Appalachia are systematically dismantled in order to extract coal more cheaply.  This image shows a still relatively early stage in the process of Mountain Top Removal mining. Hundreds of feet of elevation will ultimately be blasted from each mountain.  Over 500 mountains have been destroyed to this point. Boone County, WV

  • Zoomed in view of a MTR site in southern West Virginia.  The 200 foot tall dragline is used to remove unfathomable quantities of earth, erasing the mountain and expelling heavy metal toxins. Settlement ponds partially capture the rainwater polluted with heavy metals; the remainder are excreted into the air and watershed.
