Join actions all over the country targeting banks that fund the Mountain Valley Pipeline. We have one of the top funders right here in the Bay Area: Wells Fargo, headquartered in San Francisco, has poured $86.7 million into this destructive project.
For starters, the pipeline is planned to carry fracked gas across Appalachia, from extraction fields of northern West Virginia, blasting through the Blue Ridge mountains and Virginia before reaching its end in North Carolina.
Construction on the MVP mainline has already severely harmed clean water sources across Appalachia. Its route over steep slopes increases the risk of water damage and explosions.
And the climate impact: It’s been estimated that the full life cycle greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions (excluding construction emissions) generated by the MVP mainline alone would be almost 90 million metric tons annually. This is equivalent to the emissions from 23 average U.S. coal plants or over 19 million passenger vehicles driven every year
