Sacred Headwaters protected from gas drilling!

Submitted by She on December 18, 2012 - 11:18am

 

AMAZING NEWS! The government of British Columbia announced today that Shell is withdrawing its plans to drill for gas in the Sacred Headwaters and that gas drilling is banned in the area. Yes that’s right, Shell is gone!  

This is an incredible victory so please join us in celebrating this success! Your unwavering support for our Sacred Headwaters campaign was a game-changer.

Taking on big-energy giants like Shell is no easy feat. In fact, Shell rarely backs out of projects that serve its bottom line. This is the kind of challenge—high stakes and big adversaries—that ForestEthics thrives on. We make it our business to do the impossible and with your help, we did just that. Now the majesty and wildness of the Sacred Headwaters will not be scarred by thousands of Shell's gas wells.
