Opposition to the Keystone XL Pipeline

February 14, 2013 – Segment 2

Yesterday, nearly fifty environmental activists were arrested outside of the White House during a protest of the Keystone XL pipeline, a project that would install a pipeline to transport oil from the Canadian tar sands to the Gulf of Mexico.

We talk about yesterday’s action and the protests that will be taking place all weekend with Jamie Henn, Communications Director for 350.org, and Marty Cobenais, Indigenous Environmental Network pipeline campaigner, who was arrested yesterday.
