Beautiful Light Brigade video from Wisconsin; No to KXL // Overpass Light
The Keystone XL Pipeline is a massive project that would pipe toxic tar sands (extremely dirty oil) from Canada down to the Gulf Coast of Texas. These tar sands are so polluted that the oil and gas extracted and refined from it can not be sold in the US. Instead they are piping it to the coast to be shipped overseas where they actually make a higher profit anyway. Besides the toxic pollution from the burning of this oil, the extraction and piping of these tar sands are very harmful to our environment.
