What Philly needs to know about the dangers of Liquified Natural Gas Train Transport

As we face irreversible climate change, including unprecedented wildfires, heat waves, and hurricanes, a new destructive plan to prioritize profit over the planet and humanity looms large in Pennsylvania: the transportation of liquefied natural gas (LNG) by train. Unless President Biden acts soon, this incredibly hazardous and extremely flammable and explosive material is set to be transported from Wyalusing in North Central Pennsylvania to Gibbstown, NJ (across the Delaware River from the Philly airport), passing directly through Philadelphia. This LNG will be produced by fracking, with significant pollution, methane leakages, and harms to the health of Pennsylvania communities at every stage.
