The Together for Water non-governmental organization (NGO) issued a press release Tuesday that mining activities at the Turów coal mine in Poland are causing serious environmental harm in neighboring Czechia.
Better measuring needed
The group highlighted decreasing water levels in a borehole in the Czech village of Uhelná as evidence. The NGO argues that the measurements in Uhelná do not match those in four control boreholes on the Polish side, which are crucial for evaluating the effectiveness of the mine's underground barrier.
