Daryl Hannah was amongst a dozen arrested on Tuesday for impeding traffic after sitting down on Route 3 at Coal River Valley in protest of mountaintop removal mining.
NASA climate scientist James Hansen and former Congressman and Secretary of State Ken Hechler were also cited.
The protesters attempted to cross onto the property of leading mountaintop removal coal mining company, Massey Energy—purposely trespassing to protest the destruction of mountains immediately above the Coal River Valley community.
The group was protesting Massey Energy in the wake of the Obama Administration’s announcement that the EPA will not abolish the aggressive strip mining practice.
We’re guessing the honeymoon between Daryl Hannah and her new prez is over…

I would not mind seeing the tops of her mountains so hell no I do not agree with what her shirt says.
