Last week, the Long Beach City Council hosted a press conference against Port Ambrose, the proposed liquefied natural gas (LNG) terminal, to be built off our coast. Council President Anthony Eramo had this to say in regards to the site’s inability to create permanent jobs: Our energy choices matter. The time has come for a robust investment in conservation and our renewable energy infrastructure, that will create the permanent green jobs our economy needs. Council Vice President Torres spoke to the ecological impacts of the site, stating, “Sea life is crying-out for help from us in stopping the Port Ambrose Project; we urge Governor Cuomo to stop this project now!” Councilwoman Fran Adelson ended the conference by appealing directly to Governor Cuomo, saying, “You, along with Senator Schumer, were responsible for us getting the funds to rebuild…If you do not veto the LNG Port Ambrose project it will all have been for nothing. Please continue to support rebuilding our city by vetoing this project.”
