Quick Line 5 Facts
We don't need Line 5 oil
Enbridge’s Line 5 pipeline carries up to 540,000 barrels worth of oil and natural gas per day from Superior, Wisconsin to Sarnia, Ontario, but we don’t need those fossil fuels to meet our energy demands.
Protecting the Great Lakes is critical.
Line 5 is a crude oil and natural gas pipeline that crosses directly through the heart of the Great Lakes, threatening the drinking water source for over 40 million people.
Enbridge is operating Line 5 illegally.
Enbridge continues to operate Line 5 in spite of a 2020 state order to cease operations from the Governor of Michigan. Enbridge is doing this without a valid lease to submerged lands for the project.
Oil spills have happened. They'll happen again if we do nothing.
Enbridge's pipelines have already spilled over 1.1 million gallons of oil into the Great Lakes watershed. Line 5 was only meant to last 50 years, but it's over 70 years old now.
WATER IS LIFE!
The Great Lakes Need Us
The Great Lakes hold 84% of Turtle Island’s surface freshwater. 40 million people rely of the Great Lakes to provide drinking water and even more depend on the ecosystem services and economic opportunities they provide. Let's safeguard the future of one of the most important biospheres in the world!
