German NGO NABU takes action against gas pipeline Nord Stream 2

NABU

The German Nature and Biodiversity Conservation Union (NABU) is taking legal action against the controversial natural gas pipeline Nord Stream 2, which is supposed to connect Germany with Russia via the Baltic Sea. The NGO says the offshore pipeline will cut through several marine protection areas and might lead to 鈥渋rreversible damage鈥 to the environment. German authorities have given the go-ahead for the pipeline for May 2018 but NABU argues that the licensing did not follow due process.  It argues that the project鈥檚 management did not publish important data on the operation of its first pipeline project Nord Stream 1 and also did not go through a complete environmental compatibility assessment.
