Postcard-style collage of protests and the Mackinac Bridge urging Gov. Whitmer to reject Enbridge Line 5 oil tunnel.

Enbridge and its dirty fossil fuels have no place in our Great Lakes - and Michiganders sure as hell shouldn't be on the hook for extending the lifespan of its aging Line 5 oil pipeline for another century. 

Take action:

Constitutional rights, finances at stake in reimbursement deals tied to Enbridge's Line 5 The Bayfield County board will take up agreements where Canadian energy firm Enbridge would reimburse law enforcement for services tied to its controversial Line 5 reroute in northern Wisconsin. 

Two Wisconsin counties signed agreements to allow Enbridge to reimburse police presence during the Line 5 reroute construction. One county rejected it, but is discussing an amended agreement. 

#ShutDownLine5  

What Enbridge Didn't Want You to See Its engineers said "weak to very weak." Its lawyers said you couldn't see it. Now you can.

For years, Enbridge resisted releasing key sections of its Geotechnical Baseline Report to state regulators on the proposed Line 5 oil tunnel project.

Even the version now in the public record is redacted in critical areas.

Reminder: a natural gas explosion during construction of a tunnel under Lake Huron killed 17 workers. Engineering experts have testified that Enbridge's proposed Line 5 oil tunnel project also carries the risk of explosion.

Work on Enbridge's Line 5 reroute underway as legal challenges aim to halt construction The Line 5 reroute has generated years of debate, protests, tens of thousands of comments and challenges to state permits that prompted a weekslong contested case hearing. The fight over Line 5 is one...

Construction on the Line 5 reroute project in Wisconsin has already started, despite the pleas from the Bad River Band and legal actions to stop it.

We agree with the Band and the efforts to eliminate this threat to our Great Lakes.

The Great Lakes hold 84 percent of North America's available, fresh surface water. Let's not take this treasure right in our backyards for granted. #ShutDownLine5

Decision Watch Send a message to let Governor Whitmer and EGLE Director Roos know we are watching and waiting for them to make the right choice to protect the Great Lakes.

Take action:

Enbridge caused the 2010 Kalamazoo River oil spill, one of the largest in American history. Its aging Line 5 oil pipeline is a ticking time bomb under the Great Lakes—and its proposed tunnel only prolongs the danger. We need to reject the tunnel and shut down Line 5.

A foreign corporation shouldn't be reimbursing local law enforcement for surveilling citizens––period.

A Tale of Two Straits What does the Strait of Hormuz tell us about the Straits of Mackinac?

Oil prices are skyrocketing due to the Iran war halting tanker traffic in the Strait of Hormuz.

It's a good reminder about the violence inherent in fossil fuel production - and how the myth of Line 5 staying open for another century is built on B.S.

The Latest on Line 5 The clock is ticking on Enbridge. In 2023, a Federal Court ordered Enbridge to shut down and remove the pipeline, and the Judge gave Enbridge 3 years to do it. At the time, oil industry experts were clear that with at least 18 months' notice, the industry could adjust and there would be little to no impact at the gas pump. We’re now less than 4 months away, and Enbridge still doesn’t have a decommissioning plan. Instead, they are begging the courts to delay the shutdown order and doing whatever they can to keep the oil flowing, and forcing Wisconsin and the Great Lakes to assume all the risk.

Read this great breakdown about what's happening in Wisconsin in the fight to #ShutDownLine5.

Enbridge paid police to protect one pipeline. Now it wants to do it again in Wisconsin. The Bad River Band is fighting to stop Line 5 and protect its watershed. Meanwhile, local sheriffs are already tallying the cost of riot gear.
