Dr. Bill Berg

Bio/Background

Dr. Bill Berg is a cofounder of Stop the Tollway, which prevented a tollway from being built through Brownsville, Texas, and instead dedicated the land to a bike trail. He is also a cofounder of Save RGV, which has been working to slow SpaceX and other companies from using liquefied natural gas in the Rio Grande Valley.

“We went to any venue we could possibly find. We went to rotary clubs, any place that would want to hear about what liquified natural gas was when it was this new thing. We had a website. We made ourselves available.  [The strategy paid off:]  We solicited locally, but other groups - Rainforest Action Network, Not Here Not Anywhere, and

Friends of the Earth France - found us.”
