Environmental Champion,

The Department of Ecology released a new draft analysis of the climate impacts of the massive gas-to-methanol refinery proposed in Kalama, Washington. The new Draft Supplemental Environmental Impact Statement confirmed that this facility would use a staggering amount of fracked gas and quickly become one of Washington’s most significant sources of climate pollution.

Unfortunately, Ecology’s study also relies on speculative and unenforceable economic analysis that the project backers are continuing to use to greenwash this polluting project. In spite of this, Ecology’s analysis confirms that under every possible scenario, the pollution impacts of this project would be enormous.

Join us and urge Ecology to deny this dangerous project! [[link removed]]

The methanol refinery would use up to 320 million cubic feet of fracked gas per day, more than all of Washington’s gas-fired power plants combined. Altogether, Ecology concluded the methanol refinery would cause 4.6 million tons of climate pollution every year for 40 years—making it one of Washington’s largest sources of climate pollution.

The urgency of our climate crisis demands the highest level of scrutiny, and we cannot allow massive new fracked gas projects to move forward based on speculation. This analysis confirms what we have already known—that this dangerous project poses potentially catastrophic climate impacts and has no place in Washington’s clean energy future.

We simply can’t build a clean energy future by investing in dirty energy. Across the region, communities have come together to fight major fossil fuel terminals and won. Together we can protect Kalama and our climate from a reckless fracked gas proposal.

Join us in saying no to the Kalama methanol refinery. [[link removed]]

Thank you for all you do,
