My previous posts on XL, tar sands, bitumen, etc.:
Detroit buried in Petroleum Coke (which comes from tar sands when the oil is extracted.)
PIpeline rupture report buried. Exxon interfering with coverage of Arkansas spill. So you know that if there are any issues with Keystone, et al, we’re aren’t likely to hear about it until a lot of damage is done.
Kochs exposed. One of the most important films you will watch.
Members of Congress pushing for XL pipeline…while being invested in it. And the Dirty Nine who were flown on private jet for a private meeting…um-hmmm.. this link also contains the testimony of Dr. James Hansen, a NASA scientist, on the Tar Sands being “game over” for the climate.
Canadians testify at the Senate. Tell us…how does it feel to be forced out of your home due to a toxic environment,,hmmm? /snarky
The First Nations folks speak out against the Tar Sands. Their passion is so inspiring. And their spiritual connection to all of Creation is evident in the video.
Yes, there are actual progressive Democrats, although it’s hard to spot them sometimes. Note that Elizabeth Warren has signed on…and Hillary Clinton’s State Department’s environmental impact report was done by a Petroleum insider. Unreal. Clinton really must think we’re stupid or something.
PR Watch’s fine work on exposing the Keystone XL pipeline.
Leto, Kennedy, et al, send a letter to John Kerry against the XL. I include my own journey towards my impact towards the environment and trying to reduce my contribution to pollution.
