Mountaintop Removal Road Show

The Mountaintop Removal Road Show includes a stunning 20-minute slide show about the impacts of mountaintop removal on coalfield residents, communities and the environment, and features traditional Appalachian mountain music and shocking aerial photos of decapitated Appalachian mountains.

Coalfield residents such as 'mountain keeper' Larry Gibson, of Kayford Mountain, West Virginia, Teri Blanton of Kentuckians for the Commonwealth, and coal miner's widow Lorelei Scarbro - who lives next to a mountaintop removal mine - are available to speak after the slide show.

Road Show presentation times can be tailored to your needs, usually 50 minutes to 90 minutes is best.

The Mountaintop Removal Road Show has been shown over 700 times in 22 states since 2003 - including over 200 large and small universities such as Yale, Duke, Vanderbilt, Notre Dame Law School, Middlebury College, and Iowa State University, plus many church, community and civic organizations.

There is no charge for the presentation, all speakers are volunteers; however donations and honorariums to defray gas and travel expenses are gratefully accepted.
