The second video is "Coal Mine". This one touches on an incredible coal mine > methane > clean energy project, but focuses visually on bringing park skiing to the mine. For more on the project itself, scroll down...

Produced in the fall of 2012 when the project started, the video below talks more about how the technology works and how everyone wins, including the West Elk Coal Mine, Aspen Skiing Company, and the environment. Really cool stuff.
