Tell the EPA: Don’t let carbon waste injection poison our future
Efforts to expand carbon capture and storage, or 'CCS,' projects are underway in Texas. This new CCS effort presents a new risk to communities' drinking water. CCS involves injecting highly pressurized carbon dioxide waste deep into the earth below our communities into wells and pipelines – and if proper oversight is not conducted, underground sources of drinking water (USDWs) can be permanently contaminated with strong acids and harmful chemicals such as lead, arsenic, and more. The Railroad Commission of Texas is working to gain primary oversight authority over carbon sequestration projects, an agency which has demonstrated a consistently poor record of environmental oversight. We urge you to sign the petition to the EPA voicing your concern over their proposal to rapidly build out carbon capture and storage well projects in Texas without rigorous oversight or proper community engagement.
