NEWS: Indigenous Leaders Demand Halt to Enbridge Line 5 Reroute Construction in Wisconsin 

A “trust us” pinky promise from a company with a track record like Enbridge isn’t good enough for our Great Lakes. Demand Gov. Whitmer and EGLE conduct a comprehensive review of the proposed Great Lakes tunnel: https://www.oilandwaterdontmix.org/decision_watch

Lyla from Groundwork Center just published a fantastic OpEd in the Detroit Free Press taking a look at what's at stake with the upcoming decision from the Michigan Supreme Court on Enbridge's Line 5 tunnel. www.freep.com/story/opinio...

“This is a clear and pivotal win generated by the movement to shut down Line 5, and the tenacious defense of our Great Lakes exhibited by Attorney General Nessel."

We're in a clean energy world, and dirty fossil fuels have no place in it. Join us in contacting Gov. Whitmer to reject the Line 5 oil tunnel this Earth Day!

Enbridge and its dirty fossil fuels have no place in our Great Lakes - and Michiganders sure as hell shouldn't be on the hook for extending the lifespan of its aging Line 5 oil pipeline for another century.  Take action:

Toot toot... beep beep. #ShutDownLine5 #NoLine5OilTunnel

This does nothing to lower energy prices. It only gives more power to a Canadian corporation. michiganadvance.com/briefs/trump...

Two Wisconsin counties signed agreements to allow Enbridge to reimburse police presence during the Line 5 reroute construction. One county rejected it, but is discussing an amended agreement.  #ShutDownLine5  

For years, Enbridge resisted releasing key sections of its Geotechnical Baseline Report to state regulators on the proposed Line 5 oil tunnel project. Even the version now in the public record is redacted in critical areas. Read more: thecurrentowdm.substack.com/p/what-enbri...

BREAKING: A report from Enbridge submitted to Michigan regulators confirms what we've been suspecting - unsafe conditions, including weak bedrock, high water pressure and dangerous gases beneath the Straits where the company hopes to build an oil tunnel.

Step 1: Funnel money to police Step 2: Criminalize nonviolent protests  Step 3: Manufacture consent for aging fossil fuel pipelines #ShutDownLine5

Reminder: a natural gas explosion during construction of a tunnel under Lake Huron killed 17 workers. Engineering experts have testified that Enbridge's proposed Line 5 oil tunnel project also carries the risk of explosion. Let's not have history repeat itself. #ShutDownLine5

Construction on the Line 5 reroute project in Wisconsin has already started, despite the pleas from the Bad River Band and legal actions to stop it. We agree with the Band and the efforts to eliminate this threat to our Great Lakes. www.wpr.org/news/enbridg...

The Great Lakes hold 84 percent of North America's available, fresh surface water. Let's not take this treasure right in our backyards for granted. #ShutDownLine5

Enbridge caused the 2010 Kalamazoo River oil spill, one of the largest in American history. Its aging Line 5 oil pipeline is a ticking time bomb under the Great Lakes—and its proposed tunnel only prolongs the danger. We need to reject the tunnel and shut down Line 5.

Celebrating #WorldWaterDay today  🌊

A foreign corporation shouldn't be reimbursing local law enforcement for surveilling citizens––period.

Oil prices are skyrocketing due to the Iran war halting tanker traffic in the Strait of Hormuz. It's a good reminder about the violence inherent in fossil fuel production - and how the myth of Line 5 staying open for another century is built on B.S. thecurrentowdm.substack.com/p/a-tale-of-...

NEWS: Right as @MichiganEGLE mulls its permitting decision for the Line 5 oil tunnel later this month, the agency sent a letter to Enbridge asking for more information about how the tunnel will impact Tribal cultural resources in the Straits. (1/3) www.mlive.com/environment/...

The EPA has proposed new rules that would weaken state & tribal authority under the Clean Water Act, making it easier for oil pipeline companies to push risky projects through federal permitting, even when they threaten water quality. Take action with us: www.oilandwaterdontmix.org/stop_rigging...
