Latest Ruling Stops Up to 50 Permits; Economists say Goodwin Decisions Could Have Serious Economic Impact
(Mountaintop removal destroys--forever--ecosystem
services that have huge economic value. The Marshall
economists fail to consider both ecosystem
services and the HUGE externalized costs, such as increased
flooding, society incurs as a result of mountaintop
removal. As we head into the post-carbon era, we can create millions
of jobs, while ensuring a healthy life-support system for
future generations.)
