German lignite for power generation !? Landscape destroyed, almost to the residential area. Here is a look into the "small" pit in the mining Inden.

In the background of the picture the largest man-made artificial mountain from the overburden of lignite mines. It covers an area of 13 km² (> 5 Miles²) and is at the highest point 301.8 meters (990ft) high. By recultivation and development for the Torismus become a good excursion destination. The Hambach forest, which is known all over the world in the meantime, is nearby and is guarded by tree conservationists all day long! RWE as a mine operator and the police are sometimes delivering proper battles. Wherever feces and firecrackers "fall" from the trees! Until October 2020 there will be a clearing stop and no tree will fall anymore. By the way, the forest is a jungle and more than 2000 years old, much of it has already been destroyed for the coal.
