Back in the United States, thirty-one people were arrested Tuesday during an anti-coal protest at a mountaintop removal site owned by Massey Energy. The demonstrators refused to leave a road outside a coal storage silo that neighbors an elementary school. Among those arrested were NASA scientist James Hansen, actress Daryl Hannah and former Congress member Ken Hechler.
