Kayford Mountain Reclamation Direct Action

44 people risked arrest Oct 24th on Kayford Mountain, WV by trespassing on a
Patriot Coal Company "reclamation" site to plant trees. Once all the
trees were planted and the activists were not under arrest, they walked
back off with their shovels.

Mountain Top Removal creates a fraction of the jobs needed for a healthy Appalachian economy.  A recently propsed Srip Mine operation claimed it would cost 250 million for the project and create 250 jobs...  250 jobs an hundreds of miles of destroyed mountains and streams.  Maybe there's another way to create some jobs...?
