President Obama: Climate Leader or Paper Tiger?

Alberta Tar Sands: The Dirtiest of the Dirty

One would think that the image above would be enough to say NO. Really, how can anybody with a conscience think ramping this up is a good idea?

This is the environmental disaster called Alberta Tar Sands that will be at the north end of the controversial Keystone XL pipeline. I encourage all of my followers to read Dr. John Abraham’s excellent piece in The Guardian titled: Keystone XL decision will define Barack Obama’s legacy on climate change.

The money quote:

“If his administration cannot say “no” to Keystone – the dirtiest of the dirty – can it say no to anything?”
