Open Letter from a Coal River resident
Dear Mr. President: We face a national security threat on Coal River Mountain 2
Posted 3 weeks, 6 days agoI write to you in a moment of urgency. In your address at MIT last week, you told students that the “Pentagon has declared our dependence on fossil fuels to be a security threat.” Here in the Coal River Valley of West Virginia, our mountain communities face a security threat that calls for immediate federal intervention.

Al Gore Coal River Mountain
Thank you Jeff Biggers. As a life long seventh generation community member of the Coal River Valley I am so appreciative of this well written piece. Al Gore may want to speak to his friend Bobby Kenndey Jr. who visited us last year and was appalled by what he witnessed. We are surrounded by mountain top removal coal extraction. Coal River Mountain is the last great mountain in this area and it's wind resource is the last hope for our communities survival. If Coal River Mountain is allowed to be wasted, it will be remembered as an act of greed by those such Joe Manchin and Don Blankenship, but even worse it will be remembered as an act of apathy by those such as Al Gore and Barack Obama.
