'The Last Mountain': Appalachia vs. Big Coal

Interesting video offered by Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. who has actively opposed mountaintop removal for more than 20 years:

Robert Kennedy Jr. introduces a new film, "The Last Mountain," which illustrates the fight to save the last great Appalachian mountain from "mountaintop removal." A giant coal mining corporation is pushing to blow it up using a devastating strip-mining practice which has destroyed entire landscapes. The Coal River mountain community is fighting to preserve the mountain and build a wind farm on its ridges instead. "The Last Mountain" turns a light on the battle being played out in America between energy needs and environmental and public health concerns.
