Keep Rhode Island Beautiful North-South Trail Hike

Posted on by Keep Rhode Island Beautiful

Burrillville’s Sean Trinque will be leading a team on the 78 mile through hike of the North South trail in an effort to raise awareness to the very forests that are being threatened by the Clear River Energy Center gas and oil fueled power plant.  The proposed project would destroy and negatively impact hundreds of acres in Northwest Rhode Island next to conversation and recreation areas like George Washington Mgmt Area, Pulaski Park, and Buck Hill.  It would also lock our state into decades of additional climate warming emissions.  All this when our state with 400 miles of coastline is already planning for the impact of rising sea levels and increased storm surges due to climate change.  Click here to learn more about dangers and the negative impact of the proposed project.
