Dear concerned friends,

Not only does this proposed pipeline disturb, disrupt and destroy our homes and farmlands, woodlands, animal/ bird habitat and breathable air, it is carrying gas for more than 400 miles to be shipped out of the country. None of it is needed or will be used here. We are paying the price for this destruction and Kinder Morgan is bankrolling the profits from sales overseas.

If the threatened trees are on Woolman Hill Property, then I’d invite some Druids to consecrate them each, and they might still have value on powerline proprty. I don’t know whether Fracking is more evil than King Coal, but utilities are responsible for Reliability, and alternatives are still in development.

Being able to see in my mind’s eye just where this pipeline is proposed makes it real, more real than “discussions” ever could. I will be joining the effort to defeat the pipeline because of this dose of reality.

Thank you.

thanks for this news Margaret. I love knowing what is going on. If it comes to petitions or letters that can be done from out of state in a helpful way, please let me know. I am still horrified that people think this is a good idea.
In the meantime, enjoy the growing of the Light~!

Love,
Amanda Ann

Margaret, thank you for providing this information, organized so beautifully. I will support opposition of the pipeline and will share this information with Friends and colleagues, encouraging them to do the same.

How to keep all the issues in perspective:

* A NIMBY concern, that our land and views not be disturbed

* A concern about fracking, and the huge damage it does to the environment

* A vision of how conservation, and renewable energy sources, can make up for the supposed need for this pipeline.

In reply to Pat Wallace. Thanks, Pat! I'll also be at CVQM and will be bringing extra copies of the resource list and open house schedule. See you then, Margaret

This update will be brought to the CT Valley Quarterly Meeting tomorrow, February 1, 2015. It is good to see the many open houses. I hope Friends will try to get to all of them. I will go to the one in Farmington, CT and would like to know if others will also.
