A Lawsuit Could Force FERC to Consider Climate Impacts of New Oil and Gas Projects

from Drilled · host Pushkin Industries

A lawsuit filed against the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) over a small Massachusetts project could have nationwide implications. The lawsuit aims to force FERC to evaluate the overall emissions and climate change impact of any new energy project—something the courts ordered the agency to do yers ago and has particular relevance right now as FERC has been rapidly approving new energy infrastructure. Adam Carlesco, lead attorney for the plantiffs, walks us through the case.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
