Bakken Oil Trains in New York: What You Need to Know
Presentation by Sandy Steubing of PAUSE (People of Albany United for Safe Energy)

Q+A and Discussion to follow
FLYER ATTACHED
Join us for a free presentation on Bakken crude oil trains with Sandy
Steubing, an activist and organizer with PAUSE, People of Albany United
for Safe Energy. PAUSE works to promote safe, sustainable energy and
environmental justice, and aims to engage the greater public to stop the
fossil fuel industry's assault on the people of Albany and our
environment. Since moving to Albany in 2010 Sandy has been an activist
in several organizations, among them are
People of Albany United for Safe Energy (PAUSE), The Solidarity
Committee of the Capital District, and the Green Sanctuary Committee of
the Albany Unitarian church.
Every week trains loaded with volatile crude oil “fracked” in North Dakota's Bakken shale travel through Buffalo and Albany. With very little public awareness and no study of environmental impacts, the gas & oil industry has made our region a dangerous hub for highly flammable oil using these “bomb trains.” The rail system was never built for this kind of dangerous cargo, yet these trains travel through population centers and next to schools, homes, and businesses. Join us to find out more and get involved! Sponsored by PAUSE, Renewable Energy Task Force of the WNY Peace Center, Food & Water Watch, Mothers Out Front, and Western NY Drilling Defense.
