Inside Germany's Most Harmful Energy Source: Brown Coal Blues
Published on Mar 9, 2016
The Rhineland region of Germany has more CO2 pollution than any part of Europe due to its many coal mines. That's why climate activists organized the largest protest against coal production that Germany has ever seen.
To find out why we are still using such harmful energy sources, VICE Germany spoke with coal workers, environmentalists, and residents about climate goals, power plant technology, and a future without coal.
We see entire towns and vast forests that have been evacuated to mine coal. Watch as we search for the truth about Germany's energy policy.
