Coal miners
Coal miners are workers who extract coal from underground or surface mines. Coal is a fossil fuel used for electricity generation and industrial purposes. The mining process involves removing large amounts of earth to access coal deposits, and it can be dangerous due to risks like cave-ins and exposure to harmful substances. Miners often work in challenging conditions and may use specialized equipment for extraction and transportation of coal. The industry has economic importance, providing jobs and energy, but it also faces criticism for environmental impacts and health risks associated with coal consumption and mining practices.
