Shale Gas Pipeline Educational Forum on Friday Sep. 25th at 7:30 p.m. at the Guilford Community Center.

Fracked Gas Pipeline Educational Forum

Friday, September 25, 2015, 7:30 p.m. at the Guilford Community Center, 32 Church St., Guilford, CT.

Presented by

350CT and The Sierra Club CT Chapter.

Hosted by Guilford Peace Alliance and the Shoreline Unitarian Universalist Society.

The Algonquin pipeline expansion project has already started construction in Guilford and surrounding towns, yet many Connecticut residents are unaware of the costs associated with this and other shale gas projects in the state.

Please attend our forum if you want answers to the following questions:

How will pipeline expansions affect my town & neighborhood?

How will the cost of these new projects affect my energy bill?

Is methane, or fracked, natural gas, really a bridge fuel?

What are the health and safety impacts for local residents?

What is the effect on the environment of piping fracked gas under rivers, through wetlands, and across sensitive ecosystems?

How does leaked methane impact climate change?

More gas = more fracking = more toxic, radioactive fracking waste. What does this mean for CT?

There is significant concern about the effects of these construction projects on the economy, environment, health and safety of the citizens of Connecticut, and development of renewable energy alternatives.

This event is free and open to the public.

Friday, Sep. 25 at 7:30 p.m., at the Guilford Community Center, 32 Church St. in Guilford.
