Beyond Extreme Energy (BXE), together with artists, concerned citizens, landowners, and prominent guests, took direct action against the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) for its role in destroying the Holleran family maple farm in New Milford Pennsylvania. FERC’s pipeline permit gave the Constitution Pipeline Company and its chainsaw team - aided by heavily-armed federal marshals - the "right" to clear-cut Hollerans' the maple tree stand on the family farm, in the middle of the maple sugaring season. BXE's protest confronted FERC's role in wrecking the Holleran farm, and also demanded that FERC stop issuing permits for the new pipelines and other projects supporting the expansion of the fracked gas industry, which is ruining the neighborhoods and countryside, threatening the health and safety of all of us, and adding to the climate crisis.Locations:North America-United States of America-Washington, D.C.Date:23 Mar, 2016Credit:© Ian Foulk / GreenpeaceMaximum size:5616px X 3744pxKeywords:Actions and protests-Activists-Arrests-Artists-Climate (campaign title)-Day-Gas pipelines-KWCI (GPI)-Men-Microphones-Outdoors-Police-Small group of people-WomenShoot:Pancakes Not Pipelines Action in Washington DCBeyond Extreme Energy (BXE), together with artists, concerned citizens, landowners, and prominent guests, took direct action against the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) for its role in destroying the Holleran family maple farm in New Milford Pennsylvania.
