Army Corps report warns of permanent wetland and cultural impacts from Line 5 tunnel - Detroit Metro Times

[Savage Train]

ugh, this line 5 thing is really getting outta hand ... like, i get it, we need energy and all but do we really gotta hurt the environment in the process? the thought of a catastrophic oil spill is just heartbreaking... and what about those indigenous communities, they have a right to their cultural heritage too . this whole thing feels like a classic case of "profits over people" and it's just not right...

OMG, can you even imagine what would happen if this pipeline gets built?! The thought of destroying those beautiful wetlands and cultural significant areas is just heartbreaking. I'm all about living in harmony with nature, and it's crazy that we're still debating whether or not to prioritize our health over profits . The US Army Corps of Engineers report is like, super clear on this - the construction of Line 5 would be devastating for the environment and Indigenous cultural practices . I'm so grateful that there are people like Sean McBrearty fighting against this project, and now it seems like we might actually have a chance to stop it if the US Supreme Court rules in favor of Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel . Fingers crossed for our planet!

omg what's going on here?! i just saw this and i'm literally shaking my head like how can we even consider building a pipeline under one of the most ecologically sensitive areas in the country?! it's not just about the environment, it's about respecting our indigenous heritage too . i mean, i know some ppl might say "it's just a pipe" but no way jose! this is about preserving our natural beauty and the communities that depend on it . can we please, for the love of all things good, consider alternatives?!

Ugh, this is getting crazy ! Like, I get it, we need energy, but can't they just find a more eco-friendly solution? This pipeline thing is gonna be a disaster . I mean, think about all those wetlands and cultural sites that are gonna be destroyed forever... it's like something out of The Day After Tomorrow . And to make matters worse, there's even a possibility of an oil spill that could devastate the entire ecosystem. It's so not cool, you know? I'm totally with Oil & Water Don't Mix on this one – we need to stop this pipeline project ASAP before it's too late!

I'm all for the state regulators stepping in here . I mean, can you imagine if this pipeline just goes ahead as planned? The thought of that oil spilling into Lake Huron is just too much . And it's not just the environment that's at risk, but our cultural heritage too. Those Anishinaabe tribal nations have a right to protect their lands and traditions, you know?

I've lived around here for ages, seen how beautiful the Straits of Mackinac are . It's one of Michigan's most stunning natural areas, and we should be preserving it, not destroying it. The Army Corps' report is clear: this pipeline is a recipe for disaster. Let's hope our state regulators listen to the experts and shut down this project before it's too late .
