It depends on how you define "Kennecott."
Kennecott Utah Copper, a Rio Tinto property?
Kennecott Utah Copper, a BP- owned company?
Etc. etc.
Regardless, Bingham Canyon has been mined for over 100 years. You're welcome to try and find the original sin.
One cannot deny the impacts of mining.
But Kennecott Utah Copper--as it is today--is very progressive and thoughtful in regard to its environmental and social impacts.
