This. One major rupture and it ruins a huge water supply for most of the southwest.I'll give u a Nebraskan's point of view. Some will dissagree, but not most who know the whole story. Living in Nebraska i am against this pipeline only in the fact of it crossing over the Ogallala Aquifer. This pipeline will not be transporting "crude" oil. Instead it will be transporting "tarsand" oil. The most corrosive oil there is. It is a guaranteed fact that in time this oil will leak thru the pipeline and if that happens to be over the aquifer, could and will ruin it. This oil does not float like traditional crude does. It will settle to the bottom where it will cost billions if even possible to clean up. It will most likely ruin the largest underwater aquifer in the US. The owners themselves will not guarantee against a leak, only stating they have money set aside for such a tragedy, which they damn well know will happen. An aquifer that stretch's all the way to Texas. An aquifer that is shrinking at an alarming rate. A fact that has caused some counties to have area's where no longer you are allowed any wells for irigation. Only a well to privide water for your home is allowed. If u have a well on your place for irrigation and no longer figure on using it, u can actually sell these well rights to someone else for them to drill a well on their land for irrigating. Of course ur well is capped and no longer allowed that in the long run hurts ur land as if u want to sell it the new owner cannot irrigate it. This happens, big money. NONE of this oil will be used here in the US. It's simply piped thru the US to be put on ships that are mostly bound for China. Bill Gates is now the largest or second largest land owner in Nebraska. Where is he buying land? The panhandle. He wants the water rights. Can u guess what he plans on doing with them. Remember, in time , water will b the most precious resource there is. If they go around the aquifer , i have no problem with it, even though as i know the end game benefits China , so i'm against it. Fuck the worthless chicoms
Guess who owns the RR that ships the oil? Warren Buffet , yes the same man that hates Trump and donated to Bidenas of 2018, only 3% of oil moved by rail, but that is going to go up as the gulf refineries have already started retooling to start using this kind of crude from canada.
it is yet to be seen what sort of risk this will pose.
A Quebec train disaster that killed at least five people and left about 40 missing promises to touch off debate over the safety of shipping crude oil by rail or pipelines such as TransCanada Corp.’s Keystone XL.

Quebec Disaster Spurs Rail-Versus-Pipelines Debate on Oil

This has been planned for a LONG time. I remember reading a story while we were helping the Afghani's fight the Russians of an American diplomat who quit his post there because ...DON't Worry Biden ok'ed the trans Afghanistan pipeline so we can buy oil from the Taliban

Biden kills pipelines at home but promotes them for the Taliban - Washington Examiner
On his first day in office, President Biden canceled permits for the Keystone XL pipeline. Environmentalists and anti-fossil fuel activists should not have applauded his move.After all, Canada will not stop extracting oil from the tar sands of northern Alberta. Instead, it will simply export oil...www.washingtonexaminer.com
We don’t necessary need more pipelines or more Railroad tanker cars, we need men and women who represent us
do u live in Nebraska ?The oil already moves through Nebraska. It rides the BNSF Railroad, and gets refined in US Gulf Coast. Stopping the Keystone just rewards Warren Buffett.
The safest railroad in the world spills more oil than any pipeline.
do u live in Nebraska ?
That would have to be one helluva a prostitute......I do not live in Nebraska. I do understand the importance of the aquifer. I respect that many Nebraskans don't want the pipeline.
I am also against subsidizing foreign markets with cheap oil by transporting foreign oil across oil producing regions and water aquifers in the United States against the will of the people whose lands that pipeline crosses, all while risking our lands and resources to do so.
I am also against offering prostitutes in exchange for land rights. ->https://omaha.com/article_d97bcdf4-f8ef-11e4-98d1-1363a15dc49c.html
They already built 4 phases of the pipeline and oil is already flowing. In those systems "the safest pipeline in the world" has had two significant leaks, the first on November 17, 2017, and the second on October 31, 2019. Both in excess of 9,000 barrels of oil. In both cases the company tried to cover up the spill. One of which came close to contaminating the very aquifer that they say is safe from leaks.
Just because some damned green peace hippies jumped on the anti-Keystone pipeline bandwagon, does not mean I must now support the pipeline. It was mismanaged from the beginning and suffered from poor route planning. They knew they needed to avoid the sandhill region and choose to drive forward regardless. The delay that decision caused allowed opposition to mobilize and now they face seemingly insurmountable resistance. Play stupid games, receive stupid rewards.
I would argue that we should instead, build more pipelines from West Texas and Oklahoma to the Gulf near Houston or send oil and gas to the Sabine Pass in Louisiana along existing established energy corridors.
They are just manipulating prevailing political sentiments to cover up their own failings at public outreach and community partnership to get the damned thing built.
It does suck for the Canadians though. You can post your sympathies here: https://www.snipershide.com/shooting/threads/fuck-canada.7059032/
