PIPELINE INFRASTUCTURE:
RISKS & IMPACTS
Fracked gas pipelines and compressor stations can introduce significant risks in communities, including the potential for explosions, fires, toxic leaks, greenhouse gas emissions, localized acid rain and long-term health hazards like respiratory illnesses. The pipeline would cut through 125 miles of wild rivers and forests in New York and Pennsylvania and provide a corridor of power for AI data centers – along with fracked gas power plants, deafening compressor stations and acid rains that will destroy our way of life and the health of our ecosystems.
