Guardians of the East Coast
DEFENDING OUR FUTURE.
United against unnecessary industrialisation on Lincolnshire's coastline
Our MissIon
GOTEC is a diverse, grassroots organisation committed to preserving the natural beauty and quality of life of Lincolnshire's coastline. United across all backgrounds and political allegiances, we stand against this massive and unnecessary industrialisation threatening valuable agricultural land, beautiful and wildlife-rich coast, and the wider Lincolnshire hinterland.
CURRENT THREATS
CO2 PIPELINE FROM IMMINGHAM
Harbour Energy and BP plan to build a Carbon Capture facility at its Immingham refinery. The captured Carbon Dioxide will then be transported, under enormous pressure, through a pipeline to Theddlethorpe It will then be taken via the LOGGS pipeline to an injection platform in The North Sea. CCS has proved to be controversial and dangerous. It requires so much energy that it releases as much greenhouse gas as it captures and where it is used in the US has a a poor safety record.
