On many nights, John Allaire can turn off the lights in his house and keep reading a book by the glow of 80-foot-high flares blasting from a gas export terminal a mile away. The prospect of a second liquified natural gas (LNG) terminal in his once-peaceful corner of southwest Louisiana is unsettling for Allaire, a retired oil and gas engineer whose house sits near Calcasieu Pass.

Hundreds of people would die, and thousands more would be left homeless. New Orleans’ economy would collapse. Months would pass before the city was anything close to liveable. Longtime New Orleans journalist Mark Schleifstein laid out this nightmarish scenario in a series of news articles published in 2002.
