Synopsis

In Pennsylvania's anthracite coal region, a once-prosperous industry leaves a legacy of environmental destruction, social strife, and human tragedy. The Schuylkill River's devastating transformation mirrors the tumultuous lives of mining families caught between nature's force and their desperate struggles for wealth. Intersecting stories of miners, magnates, and organized crime reveal a tapestry of ambition and corruption, while ordinary lives, like Martha's and Hermie's, are ensnared by larger forces. Rendered with poignancy, it's a tale of resilience amid the rush for coal-fired prosperity, shedding light on ambition's dark underbelly and humanity's quest for justice in the shadows of industrial decay.

    Will we choose life for our children and the future of our planet? Everywhere we look, we see signs that all is not right with our earth: Extreme weather patterns wreak havoc. Pollutants sour soils and waterways. Fires and floods ravage land and communities. Climate change is just a symptom of a larger ecological crisis. If we want change, the solutions can’t come through the same systems that created those problems. ​ Ecological justice requires us to challenge our assumptions about creation and our relationship to it. It requires decolonization. We must turn to the leadership of Indigenous communities who struggle for all life as land and water protectors, and we must call on people of faith to join them—to confront climate change and resource extraction and choose life for our children and the future of our planet. This book offers hope for a better future alongside concrete actions for joining with Indigenous Peoples to protect life and negotiate with decision-makers for sustainable change that follows Jesus.

    As human, our thought processes, actions and reactions, outcomes and the psychological effects of our fear experiences influence our beliefs, lifestyles and other factors. These life changing experiences and factors determine our behaviour in communication and interaction with our environment, whether logial or illogical. As we grow, learn and develop our own environment, we choose to avoid, confront, ignore or learn to live with our fears. The most intriguing part of it is that we voluntarily believe that our fear is a major problem and a hindrance to us making our goals attainable. We become completely powerful when we are able to put our fear reactions in context, reflect on our reactions which are birthed from situations of perceived fear, and dissect the often unrecognised counter-reactions that make our situation affect our actions.
