1,000,000 Chinese to move, because extensive mining is causing the ground to sink. Seriously.

Yikes. Just imagine how much freaking coal is coming out to be burned if they Chinese government has to move 1,000,000 people.

"As the country's largest coal rich province, Shanxi faces the danger of expanded sinking areas, due to long-term and intensified coal mining.

One million people in north China's coal-rich Shanxi Province will move out of the coalmine sinking areas and shanty towns before 2008, said an official with the provincial government."
