STOP ALL PIPELINES 6/30/ STOP CULTURAL GENOCIDE/Ecosystem Attack

WTH? Looks like I have good reason now to trust the cancelling of this pipeline. -  The Keystone XL Pipeline Is Dead, but TC Energy Still Owns Hundreds of Miles of Rights of Way  Anyone ever question why this is the case, or do they just accept it. I have serious issues for those who fall into the later category. In order to address issues like this, justices should educate themselves like now.   How religious freedom law fails Native Americans  via  @DeseretNews Faulty info here. This isn't a replacement pipeline but news orgs don't seem to be doing the necessary work to provide facts in terms of this. They're moving the damn thing on indigenous lands. This IMHO is more than just BS. When will we see a just transition?  Still have issues with Biden who cancelled one tar sands pipeline but allows two others, both that will cross waterways, and will contaminate the water. It's not a matter of if but when.   -  Activists Vow to Fight Line 3 Pip...

I'll say it again. Biden has made the wrong choice. He's not recognizing the importance of indigenous sacred sites. Shame oh him! The govt twists it wherever they can. What about the waste of water for this mining when we’re in a serious drought in this part of the country? I remember the wasteful depletion of water on Black Mesa to slurry coal. This is no different IMHO.
