Opencast Pit Garzweiler

A little while ago I was visiting the opencast pit at Garzweiler in the western part of Germany. It hole is as huge as you would never even think about. I only have seen this on television before. But when your staying up in front of this pit is is unbelievable. Many villages had been torn down for this just to provide us with energy.

Due to the fact that Germany now is building a lot powerplants of renewable energy as for wind, water and solar power, brown coal once might not be profitable for big energy companies. Maybe one day it will be stopped to burn brown coal.

 

Have a great start into the week and many thanks for your support, guys.
