Have you heard about the latest scam from fossil fuel corporations? They’re saying “carbon capture” is the solution to the climate crisis! What they really mean is that their carbon capture will keep us dependent on fossil fuels and lock us into climate chaos. At Food & Water Watch, we're fighting back. The only real solution to the climate crisis is to rapidly transition to 100 percent renewable energy. Your gift to Food & Water Watch will help power the fights against Big Oil & Gas and its greenwashing.

John,

We have a problem. Our climate is changing more rapidly than predicted. That’s why fossil fuel corporations are scrambling to deflect attention and avoid responsibility. Their latest marketing plot? They call it carbon capture and storage (CCS), but it’s really a carbon capture scam. The White House has included it as part of its climate agenda, and others are promoting it as a ‘solution’ to the climate crisis.

Except it isn’t. CCS is just another scheme to generate corporate profits at taxpayer expense. So, naturally, it’s at the center of the oil and gas industry’s greenwashing efforts.

Food & Water Watch is fighting back against the oil and gas industry's latest trick to continue its dirty business as usual. Every dollar spent on climate scams is a dollar not spent on the transition to renewable energy solutions. Your gift to Food & Water Watch will help us fight back by rallying voices at the local, state and federal levels about Big Oil & Gas's greenwashing, and why CCS isn’t a climate solution.

The reason that the oil and gas industry loves carbon capture is simple: It extends the fossil fuel era instead of ending it. Already, oil and gas companies are pitching the construction of new pipelines and fracked gas power plants and making empty promises about their ability to install “capture technology” to make them ‘clean.’ It seems too good to be true – because it is!

Iowa is now part of this latest scam from Big Ag and the fossil fuel industry. Right now, dirty energy interests are trying to build thousands of miles of polluting carbon pipelines through Iowa farmlands – even using eminent domain to seize people’s properties for these pipelines! Worse yet, these pipelines will go to North Dakota, where the oil industry can use the captured carbon dioxide to increase oil production.

Corporate shills say CCS is key to boosting Iowa’s ethanol market, but with these carbon pipelines running through nearly 8,000 acres of cultivated cropland, Iowa landowners can expect the same harm to their land as brought by the Dakota Access Pipeline (DAPL). We won’t allow this to happen. And we need your help. Your gift to Food & Water Watch will help us fight back against the proposed pipelines in Iowa and other states across the country, and move us toward real climate solutions that actually address the climate crisis.

Keeping communities safe and preventing climate collapse won’t come from false solutions like CCS. As long as we let fossil fuel companies lure government officials – and even some well-meaning environmental advocates – with the carbon capture dodge, there will be less pressure to actually stop climate pollution at its source.

Instead, we need to end drilling and fracking and create the political will needed to rapidly transition to 100 percent renewable energy. This is why we fight. Join us. Your gift to Food & Water Watch will help us stop false climate solutions and pressure policymakers to move toward the green energy future needed to stop full-scale climate chaos.
