Tar sands protests in front of the White House

For several days now protestors have assemble outside the White House to express their opposition of the Keystone pipeline. The proposed pipeline will stretch over 1,700 miles from Canada to Texas and will transport oil into the States. Many activists are concerned with the environmental repercussions and affects it could have on the American people. Daphne Wysham, a fellow at the Institute for Policy Studies, tells us why this is a bad idea. Ethical oil. No such thing. I worked in the oil sands. Lakes of black oil called tailing ponds. Size of lakes not ponds. The oil companies promises to return the land to natural when done. But we know that won't happen. The money will be long spent.
