What could possibly go wrong?
According to project press releases, there are no risks.
Because none of the federal laws used to protect the public are being enforced by the Biden Administration.
That includes the:
EPA (Environmental Protection Agency)
Justice Department
SEC (Securities & Exchange Commission
The pipeline started being built on March 15th.
Will the pipeline destroy farmland?
Are private, non-public, special interests illegally using eminent domain to seize land for the pipeline?
Why is it being built?
To date, no liquid carbon pipeline project has made money.
Without federal money and tax benefits.
Who benefits?
Some of the companies and people who profit from it are listed below.
