I have to be honest, I never had the occasion to see those huge machines before I saw them in online photos, not from that article, but on places like reddit.

I have to be honest, I never had the occasion to see those huge machines before I saw them in online photos, not from that article, but on places like reddit.
Maybe the companies involved in this industry don't really like to allow journalists, those mines and machines are quite scary and bad PR.
Anyway I guess most people might be surprised to see those tiny protesters next to that huge thing.
Meanwhile, I hope greenpeace activists will be turned into ridicule.
- usrusr 7y agoIn Germany those machines are basically pop stars. Forget the few thousand jobs that would be affected, forget energy independence, for most Germans, I think, shutting down those monstrous monuments of an easier time would secretly be their number one drawback of abandoning lignite. It's a love/hate thing.
