== Mining <br> ==

Mining and connected problems belong to the main talking point of this region. Below the mountains on the Czech side, there are several large quarries of brown coal which influece the development of the surrounding landscape and local society. Since 1901 surface mining of brown coal progresses constantly towards the Ore Mountains and brings lots of problems for the region. Our main goal is to maintain the existing limits of coal-extraction, the final write-off of coal reserves and so ensuring to local residents security of living at the place that becomes their home. Breaking the limits would mean apart resettlement of local people even surely the construction of the fifth power plant in this area below the Ore mountains. This is associated with more pollution and degradation of ecological valuable space. <br>
