My old college just got a program that runs along the heavy equipment program that specializes in working on electric mining equipment, the sector definitely knows what its doing.
I remember doing a job out in west virginia, and i was surprised at how much diesel equipment they were still running compared to the canadian mines i'd been working in up till then. It blows my mind that they were still using combustion engines in the barely ventilated shafts that i was in.

They have known for fucking decades. It’s politicans and mine operators who are being shit about it.

It’s almost like banning most regulations and relying on owners to provide Saftey features on their own is a terrible idea.
