A Brave New World: The Energy Industry and Environmental Justice!

Tuesday Mar 14, 2023
One year after last season's blockbuster episode about the challenges of the oil & gas and pipeline industries, renowned energy lawyer Tom Forestier returns to Infrastructure Junkies to update us on the current prospects of that industry. Just as it wasn't over "when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor", rumors of the demise of the oil and gas industry were greatly exaggerated. Exports of hydrocarbons are up and oil companies are recording record profits. So why do we still pay so much at the pump? Tom explains it all.
Tom also gives us an overview of "Environmental Justice" and how it affects right of way projects. Learn what environmental justice means, how it is applied, what are the goals and objectives of environmental justice and how it must be accounted for on infrastructure projects.
