We speak with two environmental resource experts about an effort to produce green energy in Louisiana.
Adam Voshosted this Thursday’s episode of Louisiana Considered.
- The Louisiana Department of Natural Resources’ Patrick Courregesexplains the process of “carbon sequestration,” or removing carbon during chemical processing and pumping it underground instead of releasing it into the atmosphere. In October, industrial gas supplier Air Products announced a $4.5 billion facility will be built in the state incorporating carbon sequestration technology.
- The Deep South Center for Environmental Justice’s Monique Hardenexplains why Air Products’ plant may not be able to fulfill the company’s promises, and how its effects could harm Louisiana communities.
