A group of Romanians protested the use of cyanide in gold mining operations in Romania. For several hours on a brisk spring day, they gathered in front of mine company investor John Paulson, hedge fund manager, investor, and held up banners and passed out flyers.
The protest was part of a larger international movement against the Romanian government’s controversial decision to allow a Canadian firm to build Europe’s largest opencast gold mine.
Environmentalists and activists are warning that the mine, if opened, would lead to the destruction of four mountain peaks and three villages. Terrible as that would be, their greatest fear is the planned use of cyanide, a highly toxic substance, that is required for the mining process—12,000 tons of it each year.
The fear is well grounded in recent history. In 2000, a cyanide spill near the town of Baia Mare, Romania, occurred when a dam containing toxic mining waste burst, releasing 100 tons of cyanide-contaminated waste water into the Lapus, the Somes, as well as the Tisza and Danube rivers.
Considered the worst environmental disaster since the Chernobyl nuclear leak in 1986, the poisoning of the river Tisza resulted in the destruction of the river's entire ecosystem in a matter of days, everything from microbes to otters, according to the BBC.

Montreal, march 15th 2015: The annual march against police brutality ended in a kettle after the outnumbering police force swarmed the protesters.
In a small field in the village of Albion, California (population 398), more than 2,000 crosses form a silent and powerful protest against the war in Iraq.
The back story: Last November, some local residents awoke before dawn and hammered these crosses into state property alongside the heavily traveled Highway 1.
Within hours, the crosses were removed by Highway Patrol officers and California Department of Transportation employees.
The crosses were recovered, and a landowner recently gave the protesters permission to install them on private property.
Current US casualties in Iraq now exceed 2100, with 11 US military personnel killed last Thursday alone.
A secret Pentagon study says 80 percent of Marine casualties could have been prevented with better body armor.
