The Willow Project, a massive half-billion barrel
crude oil extraction project planned by ConocoPhillips,
was rushed to approval by the Trump Administration.
Recently, a judge in Alaska vacated the project's
approvals, and it must go back to the approving federal
agencies for re-review.
This is a critical moment for the Biden
Administration in its fight against climate change, and
according to press reports in the past few days, it is
considering approving this disastrous project.
A project of this size would
devastate the fragile ecosystem of the Alaskan Arctic,
and make it impossible for the Biden Administration to
meet its goal of getting the U.S. to zero-net emissions
by 2050.
