๐ฃ COMMUNITY ALERT: EXXON COโ PIPELINE PROJECT
Low Carbon Logistics CCS Transport, LLC, in connection with the Exxon COโ Pipeline Project, is moving forward in Louisiana. Communities need to understand what this means for public safety, the environment, and long-term risks. The project would transport large volumes of compressed carbon dioxide through local parishes, raising serious concerns for nearby residents. โ ๏ธ

First, I would like to honor God, who is the head of our lives. Second, we would like to thank our local community and allies for their continued support.
They tried to bury us, not realizing that we were seeds. Now, our seeds of change are being dispersed all over the globe.
THANK YOU to everyone committed to the struggle for climate and environmental justice. Special thanks to John Legend, Hasan, Dianna, Szena, Ty, and the planning committee for your time and interest in these pressing human rights issues. This opportunity came at the perfect moment when we needed a pick-me-up.
The time to act is nowโweโre accepting no excuses, only results when it comes to saving our community.
