There you go.
Ask West Virginia about railroad tankers full of gas and oil.
I would think a pipeline would be less detrimental and controllable than railroad tankers full of oil products not to mention truck tankers.
If the oil is acquired, it will be transported somewhere and eventually everywhere.
Maybe the answer is building refineries in the Dakotas and transport by train.
the answer is to leave it underground. its either already too late to stop serious global warming, or we have just years to do something about it. my bet is we will be extinct.
theres methane (way more polluting than carbon dioxide) trapped under ice in russia, and climate scientists are saying once the ice melts the methane could suffocate humans.
civilizations die when people go insane. considering the only thing big oil and government can think of when ice melts is to take more oil out of the ground, id say we have gone insane.
