will eat anything, including mountains. Here in the USA, our coal companies are destroying entire mountain ranges in the state of West Virginia to get at the coal underneath. And we allow them to do this.

Re: Mankind

To give a little more detail, Romuald, I should say that the miners actually strip away the mountaintops. Then they dump the rock into the valleys, often burying streams. Sometimes what they do is illegal, but they do it, anyway. And some politicians here have changed laws and regulations to make it easier for them to do it.

Re: Mankind

Hi, Bob & Bob !!! :-)))
What kind of animal is human being ...???
When I am walking through small cities and large villages which are close to mountains, I affraid people. When I sleep in forests or on rocks I know that a roe or a badger can visit me :-) I can sleep safe. Man, on average, is a very greedy and egoistic species. Our world, here, lost in the space, is extraordinary. It is so nice to admire and to know this Earth.
Thanks for your comments !!! :-)))
