Wells Fargo bank is funding coal companies that use a destructive resource extraction process known as mountaintop removal. Using dangerous explosives, coal companies are blasting the Appalachian Mountains apart, one coal seam at a time.

Its 'cheaper' for the coal companies to employee five men, explosives and giant machines and use mountaintop removal mining than it is to use traditional underground mining practices which can take five hundred men and much more time. The motivation here is quick, greedy profit.

It is clear that mountaintop removal is not beneficial for the environment and surrounding communities. With an increasing demand for cheap energy, we need to tell our banks to invest our money into renewable energy projects.

Contact Wells Fargo today and tell them to commit to social and environmental sustainability TODAY!!

  • UNITE! Unionize! 

  • Instead of removing mountain tops, what the coal industry calls "over-burden". How about we control population. The human over-burden.

  • I can't find anything good about Wells Fargo. It is not hard to find evidence of Wells Fargo fraud. Watch a story of mortgage fraud unfold in the You Tube videos at watch?v=wfYqiynknzA&feature=ch­annel. There are 10 videos that make up the whole.

  • Wells Fargo's corruption extends to so many areas in America.

  • stop shooting cows or hillbillies

  • The DRILL & BLASTING Engineer working at this mine should get the sack!

    Just have a look at blast hole ejection during the blast!

    The firing sequence delays are way out, looks like the D&B Engineer was trying to celebrate the 4th of July!

  • Very ironical guys!

  • LANZALA

  • Where's WALDO...er I mean topshlf. I take it that either you ran out of knowlegable vocabulary, or that you are still trying to find the answers to my last questions directed toward you,....or that maybe..just maybe, you are finally researching MTR, and realizing the impact on the environment.
