"Our land should be kept in our hands, and the stewardship is from the people who lived here, the people that have lived here since time immemorial. And we don’t want the destruction, we don’t want your oil and gas, we don’t want your pipelines, we dont’ want you mining, you know, we don’t want you extraction."

4. SOUNDBITE (English) Rochelle Adams, Gwich’in demonstrator:
"So what we need is sustainable energy and things that can support our ways of life and not have us, you know, us thrown under the bus and being the first ones who will be harmed, you now, because if we continue the way they want to continue, our people are the first one who will be, who will be…gone."
5. Various of protest by energy summit
6. SOUNDBITE (English) Sarah Furman, demonstrator:
"They love this LNG project, but we know that this project is bad economics, it’s bad for the planet, and it’s for the people of Alaska. And there’s a reason they’ve been talking about this project for several decades and it hasn’t happened. There’s no real investors, the private sector’s not interested in it, because it doesn’t make economic sense and it is not going to solve Alaska’s energy crisis, or the world doesn’t need more LNG. There’s going to be a glut of LNG in a few years before this project is even generating LNG, and so it’s really actually a ridiculous idea."

STORYLINE:
Top Trump administration officials — fresh off touring one of the country’s largest oil fields in the Alaska Arctic — headlined an energy conference led by the state’s Republican governor on Tuesday that environmentalists condemned as promoting new oil and gas drilling and turning away from the climate crisis.
Several dozen protesters were outside Gov. Mike Dunleavy’s annual Alaska Sustainable Energy Conference in Anchorage, where U.S. Interior Secretary Doug Burgum, Energy Secretary Chris Wright and Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Lee Zeldin were featured speakers.
The federal officials were continuing a multiday trip aimed at highlighting President Donald Trump’s push to expand oil and gas drilling, mining and logging in the state.
The trip has included meetings with pro-drilling groups and officials, including some Alaska Native leaders on the petroleum-rich North Slope, and a visit to the Prudhoe Bay oil field near the Arctic Ocean that featured selfies near the 800-mile (1,287-kilometer) trans-Alaska oil pipeline.
Calls for additional oil and gas drilling — including Trump’s renewed focus on getting a massive liquefied natural gas project built — are “false solutions” to energy needs and climate concerns, protester Sarah Furman said outside the Anchorage convention hall, as people carried signs with slogans such as “Alaska is Not for Sale” and “Protect our Public Lands.”
