URGENT ACTION NEEDED: Tell Wall Street not to fund a TOXIC FACTORY in Cancer Alley! >>
Banking giant Citi might support a racist, toxic petrochemical plant that would be the size of 80 FOOTBALL FIELDS along the Mississippi River, threatening communities, ecosystems, and wildlife.
The region is known as CANCER ALLEY because of the nauseating level of chemical and toxic pollution in the region. These predominately Black communities already have more than 200 industrial plants and extremely high cancer rates – yet Citi could pave the way for them to get another.
Please, take immediate action to FIGHT toxic pollution in Cancer Alley! Tell Citi to STOP funding polluting projects by 11:59 PM TONIGHT!
Formosa Plastics, the company that wants to build this plant, has a track record of violating environmental laws and poisoning communities. Formosa ILLEGALLY released BILLIONS of plastic pellets into local waterways for years in Texas and has been fined tens of millions of dollars. Formosa Plastics can’t be trusted.
Yet Citi might trust Formosa Plastics with millions of dollars and the lives of people living in St. James, Louisiana. Please, we need your help to push Citi to OPPOSE this catastrophic petrochemical factory before it’s too late.
The PLASTIC APOCALYPSE is getting worse every day. More plastic waste fills our waterways, killing wildlife, and contaminating our food and water with toxic chemicals. The communities where these plastics are produced face the most acute consequences, but the plastic crisis affects us all. Stand up to corporate greed and fight the Formosa Plastics plant in Cancer Alley by 11:59pm TONIGHT! >>
Standing with you,
