The NO NBK Pipeline coalition is joined by legal expert from University Network for Human Rights, Ruhan Nagra, as well as Executive Director of the Newtown Creek Alliance, Willis Elkins, and retired FDNY Chief, Ed Power, to learn about dangerous LNG: Liquefied Fracked Gas -- that National Grid recently applied to NYS expand -- at the apex of the highly controversial North Brooklyn Pipeline.

Learn about why LNG is ILLEGAL on NYC streets, and how we are going to TAKE ACTION to prevent this multinational, multi-billion dollar corporation from further harming our community for their private profit.

Now This! video. GREAT synopsis of our fight!

Brownsville Is Not A Sacrifice Zone. National Grid originated the NBK pipeline in Brownsville, Brooklyn, which is 99% People of Color, and Brownsville has the highest asthma rate in NYC. People in Brownsville will lose their lives an average of 11 years before those in a rich, white neighborhood. This is Environmental Racism.

Ride Against the North Brooklyn Pipeline Action: Frontline communities come together to bike ride along the entire seven miles of the pipeline route through residential neighborhoods, and hearing from local leaders at stops along the four hour ride that ended at the liquefied fracked gas (LNG) facility that National Grid is seeking to expand with multi-millions of our rate-payer dollars.

Hidden Costs: 50 years after the second largest oil spill in US history was discovered leaking under North Brooklyn, a fracked gas pipeline is under construction in the same community. Claire Haughey

National Grid Emergency Response: Community members from across North Brooklyn rallied at Manhattan Avenue and Moore Street near the construction site of National Grid’s disastrous Metropolitan Reliability Infrastructure (MRI) project. The MRI project is a new 30inch high-pressure fracked gas transmission pipeline through Brooklyn destined for a National Grid depot on Newtown Creek, where the company also wants to expand its LNG facility and begin transporting LNG in and out by truck.

The community called on National Grid to permanently halt construction of the pipeline. They also called on Mayor de Blasio and Governor Cuomo to stand with the community and oppose National Grid’s proposed rate hike to pay for the projects. Owen Crowley
