The Land I Trust, an audio series by the Sierra Club, tells stories of special places under threat by dirty energy -- and how the transition to clean energy is benefiting people and the homes they hold dear. In our first series, we travel through the American South to talk with folks about the coal that is fouling their air and water, the dirty energy projects they're fighting in their backyards, and a shared vision for a clean energy economy that allows all of our communities to thrive. From climate refugees to farming families, these Southerners generously sat down, walked, and canoed with us while sharing their truths. Travel with us through North Carolina, South Carolina, Virginia, West Virginia, Alabama and Florida to hear firsthand how much moving beyond coal and fracked gas matters to communities everywhere.

Teri Albright on pipeline driller Kinder Morgan poisoning her water supply: Season 4, Ep. 8
When Teri Albright and her husband retired and bought their dream home in Texas' hill country, she thought they finally had it all...until this summer, when pipeline company Kinder Morgan, while building the Permian Highway pipeline, injected 36,000 gallons of drilling fluid containing toxic heavy metals into the groundwater supply, poisoning Teri’s water well so much that her taps ran thick like mud. Kinder Morgan denied that the drilling fluid was dangerous, despite the fluid producer saying the chemical causes cancer. Now, Teri and others whose once pristine water is now ruined are suing Kinder Morgan for violating the Safe Drinking Water Act.
