🚨 Lake Maurepas, a vital refuge for wildlife, kayakers, and fishers, is under threat.

Air Products wants to run a carbon waste pipeline through these protected wetlands, putting communities and ecosystems at risk with dangerous high-pressure carbon dioxide gas.

We must demand that the Louisiana Department of Energy and Natural Resources and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers deny this destructive proposal, require a full Environmental Impact Statement, and hold public meetings before any decisions are made.
