According to pearljam.com, Pearl Jam are in opposition to Enbridge’s proposed new and expanded Line 3 oil pipeline in Minnesota.
The pipeline’s impacts on economy, natural resources, and public health, in addition to its violations of Indigenous rights, are unacceptable. Residents of the Great Lakes should not be forced to assume such risks for a project that is economically not viable in the long-term and serves no clear public purpose.
Pearl Jam joins those calling on Minnesota Governor Walz and state agencies to oppose Line 3 because of the decline in global oil demand, the rapid ongoing transition to renewable energy, and the urgency of the climate crisis. Learn more at stopline3.org.
