Mountaintop Mining Called "Genocide" of Appalachia

Andrea Hopkins, Reuters: "Coal mining has sustained generations of Americans in Appalachia, an isolated and often impoverished region stretching across America's eastern interior.... But while the US appetite for coal has long bumped against the environmental impact of mining, the growth of mountaintop removal has divided residents as never before."

The Government Sanctioned Blasting of Appalachia

Writing for AlterNet.org, Antrim Caskey says, "On a calm, clear morning in the forested mountains of southern West Virginia, 12-year-old Chrystal Gunnoe played outdoors in the green mountain valley where her family has lived for hundreds of years. It was Veterans Day and a school holiday. Chrystal's mother, Maria Gunnoe, 38, was inside when she heard her daughter yell for help."
