Petition: Coal Mining Explosion Kills 82 in China as Demand for Clean Energy Grows Urgent

On May 22, 2026, a gas line allegedly exploded 300 meters underground at the Liushenyu Coal Mine in Shanxi province, China, killing 82 workers and injuring at least 123 others. Authorities say it is the deadliest mining disaster in China in 17 years. Please sign the petition at Sign the petition now to urge President Xi Jinping to accelerate a full coal phase out.

Coal remains responsible for more than half of China’s energy supply, even as the country leads the world in wind and solar innovation. The human and environmental cost is simply too high. China allegedly continues expanding coal infrastructure despite a 2025 pledge to cut emissions by 10 percent over the next decade.
