A new deep #coalmine set to open in #Cumbria "would produce 8.4m tonnes of CO2 per year" and has been branded 'incompatible' with the UK's promise to go #CarbonNeutral by 2050.
Some are arguing that the mine would also provide vital jobs to the area.

At the start of 2020 we say farewell and a huge thanks to @GavinBlackdowns as Chair of #ECOS. Gavin has managed the affairs of BANC and ECOS with great competence and much grace.
