Enbridge, a gas company from Canada, is planning to build a compressor station in Weymouth, Massachusetts despite already high levels of air and soil pollution. Physicians for Social Responsibility has written three reports showing that the compressor station is a threat to human health and safety. https://gbpsr.org/issues/health-and-environment/weymouth-compressor-station/
