A German village, Lutzerath, is being destroyed purposely. Police in riot gear are flooding it, tearing down structures, and forcibly removing people.
Residents were evicted in 2017. Then activists moved in to fight for the village. The government is going to turn it into . . a coal mine, of all things.
This is Germany, whose direction since 1980 is toward transitioning all its power sources to green energy. And, as you probably know, coal is the dirtiest of the fossil fuels.
