Investigative reporter Lisa Sorg
The global imperative of dramatically reducing fossil fuel consumption is as urgent as ever, but that isn’t preventing private and public plans to build new fossil fuel infrastructure. See for example, a massive new facility under construction in Person County. As Inside Climate News reporter Lisa Sorg reported this past week, the 74 acre Moriah Energy Center is designed hold 50 million gallons of liquefied natural gas in two pressurized tanks 160 feet tall and 600 feet around.
Not surprisingly, Sorg found that the development has aroused deep concerns amongst neighbors in the rural community who see the planned facility as a profound threat to their way of life and recently she joined NC Newsline to share some of the details.
