Last Spring, we fought to UnFrack FERC (the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission) and the Fall of FERC in September is our chance to end this imperial outpost of fossil fuels. With grassroots movements escalating against fossil fuels and federal Courts finally validating our arguments and issuing real consequences for FERC’s failures – is this the …
Meet the GulfLink export terminal, the latest fossil fuel export terminal killing the planet and making a mockery of US goals on climate action. GulfLink would pump an additional 1 million barrels of crude oil per day to international buyers, creating an incredible 3.8 billion metric tons of climate-changing pollution. It’s also located (of course) …

I hate even mentioning WV Senator Joe Manchin’s name. For years we fought him and his dirty deals, defeating his fossil fueled proposals time after time — until finally President Biden sold us out on a debt ceiling deal, and then on the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission and let Manchin have everything he wanted —from …

A few weeks ago, the Biden administration has approved the construction of the Sea Port Oil Terminal, or SPOT, over our very loud objections. SPOT is poised to be the biggest offshore oil terminal in the U.S, which will increase cancer-causing air pollutants in Texas’ Brazoria and Harris counties and make climate change worse. The …
May 23 — That’s a wrap! We went back to FERC this morning for the third and final of our #UnFrackFERC spring action series. We started with a great rally and speak out that featured numerous statements from frontline communities impacted by FERC decisions this month. Then we had a big crew of folks inside …
