Co-hosting organizations plan to show The Monster in the House: Untold Dangers of Toxic Natural Gas, a short, spooky film produced by Circumpunct Studios and released before Halloween. This touring horror flick/documentary intermingles insightful interviews of environmental advocates talking about the dangers of “natural gas” (methane) in homes and offering solutions for just energy transitions.
In Boise, Moscow, and/or Spokane, we gratefully welcome six panelists:
* Shelley Brock, board of directors president of Citizens Allied for Integrity and Accountability
* David Camp, board and policy team member of 350 Spokane
* Peter Fargo, environment and energy program manager for Ecumenical Ministries of Oregon and a Stop Northwest Gas Expansion Coalition coordinator
* Ethan Sims, MD, founder and executive director of Idaho Clinicians for Climate and Health
* Helen Yost, community organizer with Wild Idaho Rising Tide
* Lisa Young, director of the Idaho Chapter of the Sierra Club
At all three gatherings, appreciated speakers and experienced activists will provide interactive discussions and question and answer sessions about the harms to health, safety, and climate caused by methane gas, Idaho campaigns against gas wells drilled next to the Payette River and in dense neighborhoods, Idaho Power applications for the Peregrine and South Hills methane power plants near the Snake River and Twin Falls, three new, proposed, Williams gas pipelines (Silver Spur from Nevada to Idaho, Rockies Columbia Connector on the north side of the Columbia River Gorge, and Trail in central Washington), and regional, artificial intelligence (AI) data center threats to shared water, air, energy, and public lands.
Come and join these informative conversations to learn more about the risks to local communities of accelerating, Northwest, gas infrastructure and data center development, and ways to prepare for and participate in upcoming resistance. Please print and post the attached flyer, visit WIRT website and facebook pages and/or contact event co-hosting organizations for further information, and watch The Monster in the House trailer on the StopGas.org coalition website. We hope to see you there!
