Where the light is born.Coal mining fields in Kozani.

in #photography8 years ago

An amazing dystopian scenery.

those are the coal miners in Kozani Greece where 90% of the country's electricity is produced.

I couldn't help but think of Mad Max.

There was always a cloud of ash in the air so hard to breath.

Those people are so tough you cant even imagine,but the sad truth is that cancer rates are triple than the average of  the country,just so we can burn through the electricity like nothing.

The locals call it  "the miner that swallows villages".And it really does since because of it's ever growin expansion whole villages had to be moved!
