🛢️ The oil and gas lobby is pushing for fast-tracked approvals, weaker enviro assessments+new permitting loopholes for thousands of planned CO2 pipelines
These projects may be labelled “strategic” or “public interest”, making it harder for communities to challenge them 🚷

Planned pipelines could pass through densely populated areas despite major safety concerns. As accidents in the US have shown, CO2 pipelines pose major health risks: asphyxiation, mass-hospitalisations and long-lasting health impacts. In Europe, a ruptured pipeline could even prove fatal. 👇
