This is the largest, dirtiest coal mine in Europe. It's responsible for 100 Million Tons of CO2 emissions per year. That's 3168 kg of CO2 per second. 💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀

To give you a sense of scale 📷 @kapix47

This is the RWE excavator 290 It can extract 240,000 tons of coal a day The modern Leviathan

This monster is built with @Autodesk . With a capacity of 480 000 tons of CO2 emissions per day, the "RWE excavator 290" is featured on Autodesk's website as: "A success story" 🏭☁️💀💀💀

I reached out to @andrew_anagnost CEO of Autodesk Here's his response: 1- Someone has to do it 2- We give away free software to other companies 3- He removed RWE from his website overnight Andrew is giving us a good demonstration on how leaders deal with #ClimateChange issues.

Before I leave, I'm visiting the village of Immerath. Its church was built in 1891. 📷flickr

Here's Immerath today. It's being erased to extend the coal mine.

From this moment despair ends and tactics begin. Banksy x @ExtinctionR

@JoanieLemercier @RWE_AG @DeutscheBank @DeutscheBankAG @bertrandpiccard @bnpp_cardif @RenaudDumora @LaurencePessez @antoinesire Ah yeah same in East Germany! We lost many old forests and villages to brown coal extraction. My aunt is working in "re-naturizing" the spaces (which surprisingly attract a lot of rare wildlife). But of course this can't bring back the ecosystem of the Auwald forest that was.

@JoanieLemercier @RWE_AG @DeutscheBank @DeutscheBankAG @bertrandpiccard @bnpp_cardif @RenaudDumora @LaurencePessez @antoinesire meanwhile in france. outrage about the notre dame. but this one was just as pretty

@Thouba_ @RWE_AG @DeutscheBank @DeutscheBankAG @bertrandpiccard @bnpp_cardif @RenaudDumora @LaurencePessez @antoinesire They just buy everything 💰💰💰 and expropriate people. The town, the church, the priest.. and they knock everything down.

@PetraAu @VictoriaMulgrav @RWE_AG @DeutscheBank @DeutscheBankAG @bertrandpiccard @bnpp_cardif @RenaudDumora @LaurencePessez @antoinesire Indeed 😥 Thanks for sharing
