I wonder how/if the states of these workers will reemploy them
Oh, no!!! Anyway…
How can you be so cold? They’ve barely had decades to prepare for this eventuality.
They are so cold because there is no coal to keep them warm… much sadness indeed.
Remember one of Trump’s first moves was to subsidize coal mines in west Virginia? Instead of paying for miners to retrain for a new skill with that money he kept an industry everyone knew was dying running. And everyone says “he’s a business man” no “business man” would keep an unprofitable industry in business.
The same businessman who is such an utter business failure that he has resorted to declaring bankruptcy SIX times. Checks out.
Pretty sure Trump’s companies aren’t profitable either. So kinda makes sense.
lol that fellas a clown
World faces ALL job losses if no global energy transition (not to mention lives)
Good. That’s what you get for trying to go backwards in time
I’m surprised 1 million people still work in coal. Edit: 1 million globally. Makes more sense
Good! That frees those workers up to do something else useful for society!
*worldwide.
There are nearly four times as many fast food employees in the US alone.
It’s almost like there could have been another industry similar to this that existing workers could have gotten training for. ☀️
