Tell President Biden to stop Formosa Plastics in St. James! |
|
Dear John, Formosa Plastics, a company with a long, dirty record, wants to build a massive petrochemical facility along the Mississippi River in St. James Parish, Louisiana. The proposed Formosa Plastics plant would pollute a predominantly Black community, disturb unmarked burial sites of formerly enslaved people, degrade wetlands, and deepen the plastic pollution crisis. Expanding plastic production in Louisiana will harm communities in Cancer Alley where residents already face significantly higher cancer risk than the average American. As the President of the United States and Commander in Chief, President Biden can direct the Army Corps to revoke Formosa Plastics’ federal permits. If President Biden is committed to his campaign promises of prioritizing environmental justice and fighting the climate crisis - stopping this project must be a top priority. Sign our petition to demand President Biden puts a stop to Formosa Plastics’ polluting petrochemical complex. |
