IT is false to say surface mining is safer than underground mining...per capita there are more miners killed above the ground. Also , when strip mining is used, the entire community is in danger and is poisoned. When my father went underground, he knew he put his life in danger but with surface mining, the entire community is in danger, from the unborn baby to the most feeble, sick and elderly. Remember that.
Coal is not clean..it has our blood all over it. Time for renewable energy like wind and solar.
