Stop The Keystone XL Pipeline

Republicans and the oil industry are busy pushing the environmentally disastrous pipeline again.  Bill McGibbon from 350.org is asking citizens to mail their senators the following note. 

Senator-

I oppose the Keystone XL pipeline, and I believe you should do everything in your power to stop it.

This pipeline is a scam: it won't deliver on jobs, it threatens water and human health on its entire length, and worst of all it is the fuse to North America's largest carbon bomb, the Canadian tar sands. Tar sands oil is the dirtiest oil there is, and NASA's top scientist says that burning it means 'essentially game over for the climate.'

Please stand strong against the tricks and backroom deals that Big Oil will use to force approval of this pipeline.

Thank you.

Here is the link to send a note to your Senators
