An example is given early in the film of the scale involved in keeping the world supplied with energy. The annual volume of the material moved at the Belle Ayr Mine in the US Powder River Basin—the largest coal reserve in the world—is equal to three times the volume of the entire Panama Canal.
And that is just one of the mines in the Powder River Basin. Sign In or Register. Advanced Search. Sign In. Skip Nav Destination Article Navigation.
