Environmental groups, citizens, and politicians have raised a number of concerns about the potential impacts of the Keystone XL extension.
One concern is that the pipeline could pollute air and water supplies and harm migratory birds and other wildlife.
It will cross the Sandhills in Nebraska, the large wetland ecosystem, and the Ogallala Aquifer, one of the largest reserves of fresh water in the world.The Ogallala Aquifer spans eight states, provides drinking water for two million people, and supports $20 billion in agriculture.
A major leak could ruin drinking water and devastate the mid-western U.S. economy.
Portions of the pipeline will also cross an active seismic zone that had a 4.3 magnitude earthquake as recently as 2002...
But hey, some of the 1% want it, so, the Teabaggers must obey their wishes...
