The unlikely alliance helping Poland ditch coal

[@deathbyyoutube]

Well done girls and miners - at last, a just transition in the making 👏

[@CatatonicImperfect]

What an unexpectedly hopeful and heartwarming story

[@dawidl548]

Poland is not the biggest polluter in EU. Look at Eurostat. Poland is not even in the top 5. Rich West is still using coal in huge quantities but they still blame smaller and poorer countries of the East for all the pollution. Poles will use coal for the next few decades because is is the cheapest. Most people in Poland and other eastern european countries earn very little. These people cannot afford expensive renewable energy. If you like or not.

polland is no 5 in carbon emissions. the type of pollution they're talking about is that which harms your lungs.

I needed this story today. German activists could learn a thing or two from their Polish counterparts about winning people for your cause

[@Rudelherz]

Yes, also Germans in general should learn from their Polish neighbors.

[@invisiblehandofadamsmith]

Thank you Poland from 🇬🇧 for your support to Ukraine

[@redneck4161]

And where was your support when we needed it in 1939?

[@skotnica93]

You thanks mean about as much as the dirt under my shoe.

[@susanwestern6434]

Sounds like the end of mining in the UK.

[@Ian-nl9yd]

4:44 The issue is that neither the Polish, nor the Hungarian government does 'discussions' In reality, behind closed doors, its their way or the highway. Everything else is irrelevant.
