Who says Keystone XL isn’t a sustainable, renewable project? Just ask Tar Sands Timmy . . . and Senator (for now) Mary Landrieu. Now that “jobs” claims have been debunked and US domestic oil production is booming, the Keystone XL pipeline project has morphed into primarily a political symbol.
Surely the new Republican Congress will pass a gung-ho Keystone XL bill, then it will be up to Obama to kill this ridiculous project. Let’s hope the president sees this pipeline for the climate-changing, forest-killing, jobs fantasy that it is. Unfortunately, it looks like the decimation of Alberta’s boreal forests is continuing, regardless of Keystone XL. Why should we make things even easier for these extractive multinational corporations?
Don’t be fooled by the jobs and energy independence arguments, both are completely bogus. And even if the pipeline was going to provide jobs and bring us closer to energy independence, it still wouldn’t be worth the cost to the environment and to, um, humans. Don’t fall for Tar Sands Timmy’s sales job, and be sure to check out the links, comment and share!
this is a big oil money driven project you have been misled you will not see this dirty oil the money is overseas they won't give that up so you can fill up on Sat. night. big money again wants to put you in their jackpot to get even more oil rich.
