Brown Coal Delivery Man

Months after the fall of the Berlin wall and the collapse of the communist GDR state (German Democratic Republic), a brown coal delivery man stops to shovel his polluting fossil fuel into local cellars, on 15th June 1990, in Aue, Saxony. Aue is a mining town in the Ore Mountains known for its copper, titanium, and kaolinite. The town was a machine-building and cutlery manufacturing centre in the East German era with a population of roughly 18,000 inhabitants. It was the administrative seat of the former district of Aue-Schwarzenberg in Saxony and part of the Erzgebirgskreis since August 2008. (Photo by Richard Baker / In Pictures via Getty Images)
