Wabash Valley Resources Proposes Carbon Capture Project with Community Safety Concerns
CARBON CAPTURE
Wabash Valley Resources proposed a carbon capture and underground injection project that involves injecting large volumes of compressed CO₂ deep underground. While supporters assert the process is safe, there are significant concerns regarding potential risks. If the CO₂ or displaced brine migrates through old wells, fractures, or faults, it could endanger groundwater aquifers that provide drinking water to local communities, raising important safety questions for residents.
