The UK has greenlit a controversial plan to open the country’s first new coal mine in three decades

, a little more than a year after the nation tried to convince the world to ditch coal at the COP26 climate talks in Glasgow. Michael Gove, the UK housing and communities secretary, on Wednesday approved the plan to open the Whitehaven coal mine in Cumbria, a county in northwestern England that is home to the World Heritage-listed Lake District. The controversial mine is expected to create more than 500 jobs.

It came under intense pressure to reject the plan in 2021, the year it hosted the COP26 talks in Glasgow. Alok Sharma, the COP26 President and a lawmaker for the governing Conservative Party, campaigned against the mine. “Opening a new coal mine will not only be a backward step for UK climate action but also damage the UK’s hard-won international reputation, through our COP26 Presidency, as a leader in the global fight against climate change,” he said ahead of the announcement on Wednesday.
