The Quebec government didn’t mind the energy wells that line the St. Lawrence River—until environmental activist Serge Fortier set these on fire. Fortier’s objective was to raise awareness about a problem with these energy wells: they have leaky plumbing. After trying to make this known for years and engaging in drastic measures to attract attention, Fortier finally got the government to acknowledge the problem. Why do these wells badly need attention? That’s because they are a threat to the environment, in the form of damage that allows methane and other gases to leak. Aside from contributing to global warming, the Calgary Herald also described how the leaks are a risk to water, resources, and public safety.
