UK: Court Blocks Country’s First Coal Mine in 30 Years in Order to Change the Weather

The UK is having a lot of energy problems as a result of their government going to war with the Russians in order to force children in the Donbass to become trannies.

They could do a bit to alleviate that by building coal plants.

But they can’t build coal plants because it will change the weather in 30 years and everyone will get really sweaty.

The UK’s first new coal mine in three decades will not go ahead following a decision in the high court.

Friday’s ruling is a significant victory for climate groups, who challenged the project’s claim it would have zero impact on global emissions.

High Court Justice David Holgate’s decision follows a June ruling by the UK Supreme Court that said planners reviewing oil well-drilling permits must consider the greenhouse gas emissions from burning the extracted oil.

“The assumption that the proposed mine would not produce a net increase in greenhouse gas emissions, or would be a net zero mine, is legally flawed,” Holgate said.

“This is fantastic news and a huge victory for our environment and everyone who has fought against this climate-damaging and completely unnecessary coal mine,” said attorney Niall Toru of Friends of the Earth.

“The case against it is overwhelming: it would have huge climate impacts, its coal isn’t needed and it harms the UK’s international reputation on climate.”

The ruling sends the decision back to the government for reconsideration.

Prime Minister Keir Starmer has announced plans to increase wind power generation and pledged to not issue new oil drilling licenses in the North Sea.

The mine on the site of a shuttered chemical plant in Whitehaven would have extracted coking coal used in steelmaking rather than producing electricity.

Opponents said the coal would no longer be needed domestically as Britain’s largest steelmaking operation in Port Talbot, Wales, owned by India’s Tata Steel, transitions from coal-fired blast furnaces to electric arc furnaces, which emit less carbon.

The transition from coal-fired furnaces to electric furnaces was also forced by the climate hoax people, with devastating consequences for Britain.

Not only did a lot of people lose their jobs, but now Britain is the only G20 country that can’t make its own virgin steel, and has to import it from China or India or other countries, who will produce the exact same amount (or more) of cow farts when producing it.

How is this good?
