Appalachia is under attack by extractive industries that destroy the
mountain environment in their quest for timber and coal. There are
many ways you can help.
Call for an end to mountaintop-removal mining -- This practice

communities, and the heritage of Appalachia. Help us protect Appalachia
from this destructive practice. Sign

Protect Royal Blue Wildlife Management Area from mining --
The Tennessee Valley Authority is currently developing a plan to mine
the coal under the 53,000 acre Royal Blue Wildlife Management Area
in Tennessee. While TVA owns the minerals under this land, the State
of Tennessee owns the surface. The state should go on record asking
TVA to refrain from surface mining at Royal Blue. Click

simple and quick!
