I am so thrilled to have been a part of this amazing effort and so proud of this increible team for getting the results published. Grateful to Columbia University for this great article and coverage of our air monitoring program. https://t.co/g3Z2mcRYtT
"Educate yourself about the serious issues associated with plastics....build a coalition around the work we are doing here to stop plastic in the production phase. Help us in the Ohio River Valley not become the next cancer alley and plastics production corridor.”
Why is the plastics industry doubling down when more people than ever are trying to prevent its growth? And what does it have to do with fracking? Find out on this episode of One Small Step: https://t.co/PhuoqOWEDE
The newest "Welcome to AppalachAmerica" explores plastics, petroleum, and Appalachia's #fracking boom. @JillHunkler tells us about living among gas drilling. And @Kayrros explains why Appalachia is the top US source of a powerful #climate pollutant.

Continuing to subsidize the fossil fuel industry will perpetuate the war for profit agenda. The US military industrial complex is the largest consumer of fossil fuels and the biggest polluter in the world. America has to stop being the world’s worst aggressor and embrace peace.
A self-described “fracking refugee” from Ohio joined Swedish climate activist Greta Thunberg on Earth Day to urge a congressional subcommittee to abandon subsidies to the fossil fuel industry when Congress passes its next infrastructure bill. https://t.co/zEnVX8QMZY
On #EarthDay2021, CORR organizer @JillHunkler will testify before Congress alongside @GretaThunberg and other climate experts. Click here to watch live:

Natural gas producer @EnergyGulfport failed to disclose over $800,000 paid to its former CEO and his son between 2014 and 2018, SEC says
Over the same period, 17 of Gulfport's wells were leaking cancer-causing chemicals, including one at a Boy Scout camp https://t.co/BEgO1EjJv7
So grateful for time spent with Nina working on this crucial project! Thank you, Ole Reinert Omvi for bringing to light our struggles with the oil and gas industry in Ohio and beyond.
I worked on this project in back country PA and OH where Norwegian state oil company has invested billions in #fracking - illegal in Europe. It aired a few weeks ago, prompting political inquiries. Everyone we interviewed cried.

anyone else wonder if PR quakes could be linked to LNR fracking in Guayanilla Bay? permits granted to the company in 2018 saw them place LNG vaporisers in 2019 in the Bay.
Today is Indigenous Peoples' Day in the U.S., a holiday recognizing Indigenous people, their histories and cultures. Eight states and more than 130 cities and counties across the U.S., including Washington, D.C., have made the shift to honor the holiday.
Hunkler lives within a couple of miles of four Gulfport Energy-operated well pads that the Obama-era EPA cited for allegedly spewing organ-damaging air pollution. (2/7)
The volatile organic compounds released by the oil and gas well pads, EPA told Gulfport in December 2016, are linked to some serious health problems — many of which Hunkler and her daughter experienced before moving out. (3/7)
