Energy Policy Program: Recognizing rapidly emerging developments in climate and energy policy, the Science and Environmental Health Network brings a deeply ethical and scientific perspective to local, state, national and international struggles over fossil fuels. We have two nationally renowned scientists on our team and they are very active in our campaign on carbon capture and storage (CCS) to evaluate and address new technologies proposed across the nation. We continue to moderate and participate in a major coalition on CCS that includes activists, scientists, lawyers and writers. This coalition is able to provide rapid-response research and analysis as well as provide experts for policy and media briefings. We compiled and released the 9th edition of the Compendium of Scientific, Medical, and Media Findings Demonstrating Risks and Harms of Fracking and Associated Gas and Oil Infrastructure, which is a renowned resource for activists and health professionals and more.
