Coal mining adversely affects the eco-system as a whole. On the unstable earth, the unresting
mankind constantly uses a variety of resources for daily lives. Coal is recognized to have been the
main source of energy in India for many decades and contributes to nearly 27 % of the world‘s
commercial energy requirement. Coal is mainly mined using two methods- surface or ‗opencast‘
and underground mining. The geological condition determines the method of mining. Coal mining
is usually associated with the degradation of natural resources and the destruction of habitat. This
causes invasive species to occupy the area, thus posing a threat to biodiversity. Huge quantities of
waste material are produced by several mining activities in the coal mining region. If proper care is
not taken for waste disposal, mining will degrade the surrounding environment. The method of
waste disposal affects land, water and air and in turns the quality of life of the people in the
adjacent areas. This paper throws lights on the burning issues of coal mines and its impact on the
environment.
