Keystone XL: A Bad Idea

A pipeline from Canada to Texas? It's just plain not worth the risk. Getting synthoil from
tar sands is an energy intensive and polluting process. And then a pipeline to Texas, just to then export it? Only greed could come up with it. NASA's climate expert James Hansen says it well: it's game over to avoid the worst of climate change if we proceed. Now is a great time to get the "NO" message to the state department and Pres. Obama. and also to anyone who thinks this pipeline is a good idea.

Who stands to benefit from such a pipeline? Follow this link to Think Progress.
