I know reporting is faster and more concise now but seeing stories like this one that let the subject breathe is refreshing. No music attempting to drive the viewer's emotion. Just the story and the people who live(d) it.

More of these old stories please!

Wow! I lived in Great Falls in 1983. This was the year my daughter was born. Living there during that time was so difficult, I joined the army in 1984 and moved my family to Texas. Now my daughter is back in Montana and struggling to keep her apartment. There’s jobs but no place to live.

At 13...we never got the impression of how really rough we had it as a community. I know everyone rallied around each other and used the barter system to get the car fixed for a family dinner. Been away for 30 yrs serving the country but my family is still chipping away!! Thanks for sharing. 🇺🇸🍻

Montana is on my bucket list, its so Beautiful

I drove by the Anaconda chimney this year and was fascinated. I stopped and looked around Anaconda. I also explored interesting Butte Montana.

Wow, the Berkeley Pit before it filled up with highly toxic water and turned into America's most famous migratory bird death-trap. She was pointing out the smelter smokestack as a symbol; if only she had known about the Superfund site destined for Butte's future legacy

*These men are either long-dead or 'one foot in the grave and the other on a banana-peel'* *If these men knew that Unions that were once crocodiles are now 'toothless worms' or extinct altogether they would surely rise from from their graves and demand to know 'What happened?'* *And what could we tell them?* *"We don't know 'what happened' but we don't like it either!"* ( *When I was young, my grandfather could've walked me into the 'Rouge Plant' and said "This is my grandkid...put him on the line and see if he works-out" and I'd have a Union card in my wallet in a week and a good job for the next forty-years or so* ) *NOW THERE IS NOTHING!*

it was the same thing in Kentucky. with the coal mines.

News + time = history. I remember growing up in WV and waking up on Sunday mornings before church and my mom would watch this show. She probably saw this very article. Mom was a school teacher and belonged to the teachers’ union. WV is an extraction economy much like Butte and is following its similar fate.

Yes. It could be your fate. I'm 81. In Butte.

I was a unionized underground miner in Timmins Canada for 29 years, but switched to nonunionized (mining contracting) underground mining for the remaining 14 years till I retired, and I made way, way better money than I ever did for a unionized mine!!!

Recently, ESG (environment/society/governance) has become a hot topic in management, but in preparation for this, even SMEs and non-profit organizations, except for large companies and listed companies, still have what ESG is? You don't seem to know what to prepare and run. So, the May webinar was held under the theme of 'ESG, SSI and Digital Trust'. The Government of British Columbia, Canada, demonstrates a demo along with an explanation of how to manage and trust the data generated by the self-sovereign identity technology to reduce GHGs generated during various operational activities in copper mines. Please refer to the video below................ "No business is allowed on a dead planet." This message from environmental activist David Brower is, in a way, the best way to explain the origins of ESG. This is because if the market collapses due to the climate crisis and social problems, the company loses the ground to continue doing business. - One-book ESG class (Jihyun Shin, JoongAng Books) - kzread.info/dash/bejne/rHiE1LiTY86XYJc.html

No, I don't believe so. What you are looking at in the video is over 100 years of mining history. Before environmental impact studies, safety laws, permits, etc.

Little did the man (talking about the mine closing) know at the time how wrong he was…
