Please consider taking action to help stop Keystone XL.  It has been defeated before.  We need to do it again.  Here you can write a letter to Nebraska commissioners. Other links to take action and a pledge can be found on the entries for 3/24.  This pipeline hasn't started yet in Nebraska.  Nebraska also has that law where the people need to present their opinions.   As is usually the case, very little news out there, at least this morning. It appears to be disappearing from the news. Maybe more later. Feds retain many post-pipeline spill corrective actions  Looking Back at Standing Rock: How Likely Are Oil Spills To Occur?

STOP DAPL & ALL PIPELINES 3/28 / STOP CULTURAL GENOCIDE

Mostly articles available early this morning deal with letting everyone know the pipeline has been filled with oil under Lake Oahe.  I posted a couple articles about that yesterday, just one today.  They all say the same thing.  Maybe more will be published later today.  One thing you can do to day is act to Protect the Clean Power Plan to Fight Climate Change to stop other ac tions by the current administration to des troy the progress we have achieved through an emphasis on clean energy.  Standing Rock Sioux Hails Norway DNB Bank Dumping Dakota Access Protesters Ready to Put 'Bodies on the Line' to Block Southern End of Dakota Access Pipeline Indigenous groups line up against Keystone XL pipeline Asheville committee considers Wells Fargo divestment because of DAPL Oil Is Now Filling The Contested Section Of The Dakota Access Pipeline ING Bank just divested their DAPL financing – we all helped to change their mind It’s official: Oil is making ...

Not expecting a lot today as has been the norm to an extent. Some posted below were posted before in other resources.  Please keep in mind that you can help take action against Keystone XL, links available on yesterday's post.

By now I'm sure you've heard that #45 has approved Keystone XL.  Time to stand up again.  We can stop this.  Some things are happening related to pipelines.  I'll post here.  Most here is letter writing, petitions and the like to stop Keystone XL.

STOP DAPL & ALL PIPELINES 3/23 / STOP CULTURAL GENOCIDE

Just because sarcasm can often be lost in typed words, just a thought here.  You have probably seen how many continue to speak of all the trash left behind and those poor puppies, all a part of yellow journalism, they seem to forget to mention how this company and the militarized police have trampled on sacred grounds, have dug holes to lay pipe in sacred burial grounds, or any mention lately about what has happened in the over 800 court cases.  Many seem to be fixated on the wrong things. One of them involves the continued claims that oil will run through DAPL, presented in many different ways, but still saying the same thing, attempting to keep their investors from pulling out.  Yes, they're lying but that has become the new norm with this current administration. The world is topsy turvy now with this childish, misogynistic, racist, xenophobic, fear mongering rattrap we have in the Oval Office with his early morning tirades in Twitterspere. Very few articles appear now ...

Irresponsible practices revealed to an extent of Energy Transfer Partners.  It shouldn't be difficult to discern. All they are about is making money.  It's still interesting that this pipeline is described as infrastructure.  I was always under the impression that infrastructure projects were supposed to benefit us all, but oil to be exported out of the country?  How does that benefit us all?  Damage to Dakota Access pipeline in Iowa confirmed 'Coordinated attacks' on Dakota Access pipeline denied by activists Morton County: No recent attacks reported on Dakota Access Pipeline South Dakota confirms Dakota Access oil pipeline vandalism Fees for electric cars?

SMH. No words can express these thoughts today and yesterday, at least not at the moment. One thing I will say.  The fire is still lit.  The fight is NOT over.  Least amount of articles I've seen.  I suppose the mainstream news thinks this resistance is over.  They need to think again.  But then they're too busy as they were during the campaigns covering the suntanned fake chump and his current antics, all of which are costing us dearly.   Articles that showed up in alert received to day relate to articl es yest erday that I didn't see earlier or ye s terday, mostly the latter.
