联合王国高等法院取消了30多年来第一个深煤矿的规划许可,该矿位于坎布里亚州怀特海文。 The UK High Court has revoked planning permission for the first deep coal mine in over 30 years, located in Whitehaven, Cumbria. 法院裁定,上届政府批准是“法律上有缺陷”的,因为没有充分考虑该矿的温室气体排放。 The court ruled that the previous government's approval was "legally flawed" due to inadequate consideration of the mine's greenhouse gas emissions. 包括 " 地球之友 " 组织在内的环境团体成功地对批准申请提出质疑,批准申请现已交回国务卿复议。 Environmental groups, including Friends of the Earth, successfully challenged the approval, which now returns to the Secretary of State for reconsideration.
