Take Action
If a facility is being proposed near a community— or if one already exists — there are ways community members can speak out against the construction, expansion, or operation of the facility. This section provides guidance on taking action against petrochemical facilities and their environmental, health, human rights, economic, and climate impacts. Read on to learn how to:
identify the threat of a planned or existing facility;
prevent or stop the construction or expansion of a petrochemical facility;
expose and remedy ongoing pollution from an existing facility; and
advance alternatives for economic development, job creation, and sustainable communities.
