A mega-investment: 10 000 employees, 32 million tons of annual production (coal) reserves for 300 years. Up to ten trains, each 190 cars long, leave daily at the factory railway line 157 km far to the private port of the mine on the Caribbean coast for the purpose of shipment to Europe and particularly Germany and onward transport including power plants, such as Brunsbuettel in northern Germany and Staudinger neighboring Großkrotzenburg.
The coal region was again the scene of fierce battles wage - including the murder of trade unionists. The way how people are relocated to make way for the coal diggers, you can often only be described as brutal Ver exaggeration. From the open mine, as well as the huge excavators and trucks driving across the country to dust. Workers, residents / physicians in and complain of frequent cases of asthma and lung infections. Respiratory symptoms, especially in children occur in the vicinity of the mine to four times more frequently than elsewhere in the region. 56% of the coal goes to Europe, including in Germany.
The exhibition on the situation in Colombia is supplemented by illustrations of the citizens' initiative stop Staudinger (BISS) on the E.ON power plant Staudinger in neighboring Großkrotzenburg where Colombian coal is burned already. And then even more so in Europe where the planned largest coal block: the block 6 to be higher by about 180 m as the Cologne Cathedral about 160 m. Then the future would be blown through this block alone, only 11.2 million tons more carbon dioxide per year into our atmosphere, as for example the country of Kenya, with its 39 million people generated.
An exhibition that will take affect and thoughtful. In addition, there is information and stickers to the use of (imported) coal in power plants. In a guest book, visitors / enter inside.

Johannesburg, 07/03/2012 (abc) The global mining group Anglo American struggles against the envisaged measures of the government in the Cape
As the mining company announced that it had set out the South African parliament's point of view regarding a restriction on exports of black energy carrier. These concerns include the fear of the group that such restrictions could certainly lead to a slowdown in investment activity pages of foreign companies in the sector.
