“There is a large stain on California’s climate record, and that is oil,” Wiener said during a committee hearing”. The only stain on California is the democrat controlled political machine yielding at every turn to liberal progressive socialists!
This article is misleading. California has been reducing it’s own oil mining for years. So the article says we are importing to fuel our own cars. We are importing and then exporting to the tune of 200K barrels a day. California has moved into the west coast refining business more than anything and killing that industry will probably do major damage to the economy and the legistatin knows it. Oil is dying on the vine but is not likley to ever go complety away unless they come up with a better way to make plastic. Biden should not of killed the Keystone pipeline. I guess it’s better to get oil of Saudi Arabia and then have a bunch of trucks moving it around then running it through a fast and efficient pipeline.
The Keystone pipeline was designed to pump Canadian oil product for Canadian profit. That was a major reason for the protests against its route through ecologically fragile parts of the United States.
Keystone would have brought many good paying to rural American jobs to workers along the pipeline path for construction and maintenance and we would have had a source of oil from a consistent ally, unlike the Middle East OPEC countries who are not our friends.
Temporary jobs for about 2 years. After that then they are looking at about 50, total, full time jobs for maintenance. To many that isn’t worth the environmental impact that any leak (which one occurred in ND dropping 400k heavy crude in a wetland) would cause and the lasting effects.
