The Pipelines We Need and the Ones We Don’t

· · Leave a Comment

Last week President Trump signed executive actions to advance the construction of the Keystone, Dakota Access, and Atlantic Coast Pipelines.

In the face of clear scientific consensus that our dependence on fossil fuels is jeopardizing our climate and threatening vulnerable communities around the world, it is unconscionable to build more oil pipelines for the benefit of a few wealthy oil companies.

As people of faith we are called to care for future generations. They are depending on us to safeguard their rightful inheritance of a safe and livable planet.

In the three-minute video below,  NCCC staffer, Susannah Tuttle shares NC Interfaith Power & Light’s statement opposing the proposed Atlantic Coast Pipeline.
