Norway just gave permission to a mining company to dump their waste into the Førde fjord. What can I do about this? (lemmy.world)

Two days ago, there was a post over at /c/WorldNews that linked an article from the Guardian about Norway granting permission to private mining company Nordic Mining to dispose of their waste into the Førde fjord. I left a comment asking how can I, an American with no power what so ever, do to stop this. As of writing this, I still haven't gotten a response. I might contact the head of Naturvernforbundet. If there's a better approach please suggest it. Thanks in advance.

Førde is a weird place. I went through there on the bus a number of years ago. It’s like paradise in the Norwegian hills with a section of industrial disaster happening right in the middle. Troubling, and not recommended.
