@orangulandtrust@JenHogben@mattjcan I agree a number of areas containing viable habitat are disturbed by coal mining. However, a large number of coal mines are developed in areas previously destroyed by timber companies long before mining became popular. Not all but a large number. We must save what is left.
@JenHogben@mattjcan Not really, mass deforestation is mainly carried out for plantations to supply various commodities to the rest of the world. Indonesia is the worlds largest producer and exporter of palm oil. Mining disturbance is minimal in comparison.
@bruce_kangaroo@mattjcan Most of the subsidies go to low income residential power consumers, less than 900VA connections. Normal residential about 15 cents per KW hr. Industry about 12 cents per KW hr. How are your residential prices?
@DawnTJ90 Dang, I thought I was getting dementia. Thank goodness I have a valid and studied reason for mental decline other than copious amounts of alcohol in my youth!!
