(Ahlul Bayt News Agency) - A coalition of activists are organizing a two-week protest at the White House later this month to protest the Keystone XL Pipeline, which would carry tar sand oil to Texas refineries.
A new report by Canada's environmental agency finds extracting oil from the Alberta tar sands will more than offset emission reductions in other areas.
According to the peer-reviewed report from Environment Canada, greenhouse gas emissions from oil sands are expected to triple to 92-million metric tons by 2020; up from 30-million metric tons in 2005.
