Turkish villagers demand COP31 leaders see for themselves devastation caused by coal

Akbelen, Türkiye ·

In Ikizkoy, villagers living beside a coal mine, including local official Nejla Isik, are asking world leaders gathering for the COP31 climate talks to leave the conference venue and inspect the devastation caused by decades of lignite extraction. The conference, which opens Monday, will also address the transition to cleaner energy.

Turkey relies heavily on lignite, a low-grade coal, for electricity generation, and its mining has long raised environmental and health concerns in local communities.
