Mountains of coal in the afternoon sun at Carrington Coal Terminal, waiting to be loaded onto ships for export to overseas coal fired power stations.
Aerial panorama of one of the massive lines of thermal coal at Newcastle's Kooragang Island ready to be conveyed to ships for export to foreign coal-fired power stations. To give you some idea of scale, each hill of coal is about 100 feet high!
Another image of one of Kooragang Coal Terminal's massive bucket wheel excavators supplying coal mined in the nearby Hunter Valley to ships bound fro Japan, China and other export markets where it will be burned to produce elecricity and contribute to the world's escalating climate crisis.
