Coal terminal shut by locals and climate campaigners.

The battle against coal continues. This time a coal rail terminal in South Lanarkshire is shut down.

In a statement, Coal Action Scotland appologised to workers but said that in the face of climate change they saw no alternatvie to targeting the companies involved in extraction of, what is after all, the most polluting fuel known to mankind.

Coal Action Scotland is part of the UK-wide Coal Action Network of individuals opposing the developments of a new generation of coal powered energy generation.
