Alaska youth ask high court to halt LNG project transfer

Eight young Alaskans have asked the Alaska Supreme Court to block a deal transferring ownership of the Alaska LNG project to Glenfarne Alaska LNG, LLC. The plaintiffs, aged 11 to 22, argue the transfer threatens lands and resources essential to their health and cultures. According to court documents, the project would cross 800 miles and could triple the state’s climate emissions. State officials argue the motion is procedurally improper and that the project has already received environmental approvals.
