The massive complex that Formosa Plastics wants to build in Louisiana will destroy 61 acres of wetlands, produce enough plastic to make about 1 trillion water bottles per year, and dramatically increase air and water pollution for local communities of color. #StopFormosaPlastics | Center for Biological Diversity

The proposed Formosa Plastics plant is on top of two historic cemeteries. Experts believe they contain the remains of formerly enslaved people who lived and worked on the plantations. Formosa knew about the cemeteries for over a year and kept it a secret, and now just put a fence around it. We cannot let Formosa defile gravesites and destroy the history of St. James Parish. Call the Louisiana Department of Environmental Quality and urge them to deny Formosa's permit: http://bit.ly/2LBoDS8 #StopF
