Coal Mining Documentary – The Most Dangerous Job On Earth – Classic History
Coal mining is the process of extracting coal from the ground. Coal is valued for its energy content, and, since the 1880s, has been widely used to generate electricity. Steel and cement industries use coal as a fuel for extraction of iron from iron ore and for cement production. In the United Kingdom and South Africa a coal mine and its structures are a colliery, a coal mine a pit, and the above-ground structures the pit head. In Australia, “colliery” generally refers to an underground coal mine. In the United States “colliery” has been used to describe a coal mine operation but nowadays the word is not commonly used.
Coal mining has had many developments over the recent years, from the early days of men tunnelling, digging and manually extracting the coal on carts, to large open cut and long wall mines. Mining at this scale requires the use of draglines, trucks, conveyors, hydraulic jacks and shearers.
Small-scale mining of surface deposits dates back thousands of years. For example, in Roman Britain, the Romans were exploiting most of the major coalfields by the late 2nd century AD.

off topic but erosion is the main reason why our weather is crazy,( i was skeptical at first.) . Every year 40 million people are displaced because of desertion. In 2050 there will be no topsoil. I hope they planted treess or grass. Who wants to see the land so bare?
Also, where do they do with the mountains that been raped by coal companies

The more picky people get about things, the more expensive the cost of living is.
It is NOT possible to have PERFECT and clean energy WITHOUT environmental effects. The tougher you make it on the energy companies, the more EXPENSIVE basic living will be. You will see poverty rates go up. Don’t be surprised.
I’m not saying don’t be conscious of the environment because I know someone will twist my words to that. The truth is though, cheap energy means cheap and AFFORDABLE cost of living.
You won’t get every utopian policy **without having backlash from something else**

Before progress was made to protect.. the only reason for doing so was exsposin them… by that time, which was well into the 20th century. .. why?? They along with many varieties of work places are allowed to self regulation and report. … this goes on to this day… I know first hand…my granddaddy died black lung…me?

The miners got off shift and one walked the rails back to town and met the love of his life by the tracks they made passionate love all night in every position possible.In the morning they parted ways and he was telling his friends about the best sexual adventure of his life and a fellow miner asked was she a good kisser and he replied I never found the head.
Man… devouring the planet he lives on. Very intelligent creature indeed.
We use coal for heat 100 a ton got more btus verses 100 dollars worth of oil or gas. A ton of coal Will last as month oil 200 gallons at 2 dollars a gallons would last a month four times cost our house two boilers oil and coal oil would take over when fire went out. My friend got boiler from gas to coal the gas company thought he was cheating the meter but then they saw pile of coal

For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved. John 3:16-17
