If You Watch This, You'll Never View Tar Sands Oil Or Keystone XL Pipeline The Same: New Video
Watching this video below, with experts and Americans who’ve experienced the result of deadly chemical cocktails from the XL Keystone pipeline spills, will result in never viewing tar sands oil the same again.
Mayflower residents and Arkansas experts such as public health expert Emily Harris and Dr. Moran, seen in the video below, know that issues like Keystone XL affect every American. They know this is especially true, however, for those living with the danger in their backyard, as many already do and many more will unless the XL plan is halted.
Those residents witnessed, in an instant airborne chemical exposure leading to nausea and worse, not to mention local fly-fishing destinations brought to ruin.
The chemical cocktail smell there in Mayflower is still domineering.
The poison there is far worse than oil one uses in the car.
This lethal brew has already spilled 30 times in one year.
Watch their story. See how this is not a conservative or liberal issue. It’s a human issue.
Then help stop the next disaster by stopping it at the source.
Say NO to Keystone XL. Please Recommend this (above the article), ”Like” and share this with every American you know. Too many lives are at stake to not to do so. The next generation is at stake.
Anyone can join.
Anyone can contribute.
Anyone can become informed about their world.

Thank you. Maybe Obama and Congress can be pressured into disapproving all tar sands oil, and phasing out the rest. I hope so, but I doubt it.
Ya there are dangers,so lets all start walking every where we go,and cutting our own firewood for heat that way we can save money for solar cells which will provide when sun shines
Oil is King. The government will fail us because there is no Legislative or Judicial Branches of Government to watch over the needs and concerns of the people.
I am concerned too, as anyone else in thier right mind would be.
But, when you stoop so low and hide one very important fact, your whole story goes into the toilet and your point is moot.
When you put stories out here for people to see tell them everything…..
The Mayflower pipeline was built in the 1940s. It was 70 years old when it burst.
IT LASTED 70 years with 1940′s technoligy, 1940′s steel composites, 1940′s construction methods…. I think we have advanced a bit since then,
And it wasn’t maintained properly. How stupid do you think readers are?
Also, there have been numerous serious leaks of recently constructed pipelines carrying tar sands oil (dilbit). So much for modern technology protecting us. You are trying to distract people from the real issues here, which also include the reality of badly contaminated water everywhere associated with tar sands extraction and pipelines, the fact that most of this oil will be for export and not for American consumption, and the fact that burning this oil will be a major factor in global warming.
It is the stupidity of the communities not to negotiate a liability and maintenance and emergency plan with the companies and the government and to monitor the plan and the actions to fulfill the terms of the plans on an annual basis.
there is risk in everything and there certainly is more risk in getting in your vehicle and driving than living in a community with a pipeline through it.
So, let’s all stop driving.
Readers: right on schedule, the fossil fuel trolls are back. StarRyder is clearly one, with his vitriolic attempt to distract you from the real issues. Come down hard on them in the comments, to show them you’re on to them and won’t put up with it in silence.
I live under a bridge, but for work, I have been in heavy oil for 40 years, treating and blending raw production with condensate (and shipping it to refinery’s via pipeline). I have operated and now calibrate the instruments including the sales oil shipping meter to the pipeline for our “Dilbit” mixture.
The video is correct, there is benzene in the mixture, and that is bad. There is Benzene (aromatics) in all produced oil, that’s what you smell.
Check out this link describing gas condensates, the “Dil” part of Diluents/Bitumen. (Dilbit)
http://www.gazprominfo.com/articles/condenced-gas/
I’m sure all your ‘Bakken” oil and Venezuelan “Heavy” oil mix and gas production are full of the same deadly benzenes.
Bottom line, don’t just quite using Canadian “Dilbit” don’t use any petroleum. It is all just as evil.
You accuse StarRyder of being a Troll, but I hope you like your life without the use of ANY products or by-products of petroleum. You do not use any, right?
Readers: another troll. Show no mercy. I’m handing it off to you after refuting this one, because these characters could tie me up entirely responding to them. You need to show them you aren’t buying their nonsense.
StarRyder is a troll because he deliberately misinforms readers with obvious lies. You’re more subtle, but follow the same tactics. Your points are worth addressing because readers need to know about your distortions.
Although you’re being sarcastic, you’re right about not using petroleum. We can kick the petroleum habit in stages, first by going for the largest uses like gasoline, diesel, and fuel oil (fuel for short). Increased efficiency helps, with better mileage, fewer travel miles, and more efficient heating. A tax on carbon use (per unit of CO2, for example) which is entirely refunded to taxpayers would also help a lot. Each taxpayer would get the same rebate regardless of use or tax bracket. Heavy users would lose, light users would gain.
Increased use of mass transit, less fuel-powered travel, and buying local all help significantly. Non-carbon energy sources of electricity like renewables are increasing faster than carbon sources, as I’ve documented in other comments.
Artificial fertilizer is made from petroleum, and is creating dead zones in coastal regions. Agriculture can cut way back on its use. Plastics are made from petroleum, and there is a continent-sized plastic vortex in the Pacific that is devastating life there. We have to clean it up, recycle plastic, and drastically reduce manufacture of new plastic. These are just unpleasant truths.
Non-carbon alternatives are becoming more affordable. Many people are unaware, because of government suppression, of anhydrous ammonia which is a developed technology, widely distributed and used in farming, far safer, easier to use, and more energy-intensive than hydrogen, can be used in internal combustion engines with only minor modifications and produces nothing but water and nitrogen when burned. Methane from garbage and sewage is unavoidable, so we might as well use it. Same with biodiesel from food waste. But not from “biofuel crops,” which also excludes ethanol.
As for other petroleum products, they are a smaller fraction of petroleum use, but there are alternative products and green chemists are working on alternative synthetic pathways for many organic chemicals, that don’t require petroleum.
This won’t totally eliminate petroleum use, but it would reduce it to much less threatening proportions.
Some trolls object to the increased cost of these approaches, but they are far less than the costs of degraded environment, health, life span, and even IQ caused by pollution.
You may want to move out from under that bridge. Petrochemical pollution tends to be heavier than air and it is probably having those effects on you.
Paul brown.
You are a coward. Quit calling people trolls and running away to hide from your hypocrisy.

Oh Look!
Och, that really hurt, Cory the Omega!
It is the arse lickin “christian”, calling some one a ‘coward”!
Hey, how are you today, Jed the Fed?
Aahhhhhhhh……….. THE HORROR OF LYING, CHEATING and very VIOLENT chris O CREEPS……………. THE HORROR OF LYING, CHEATING and very VIOLENT chris O CREEPS.. just like Cory the Omega!

Paul Brown, the use of Anhydrous ammonia as an engine fuel?
Have you ever had a whiff of anhydrous ammonia? If you thought propane leaks were harmful, anhydrous ammonia in your lungs will give you pulmonary edema. How fun would that be?
Anhydrous Ammonia IS heavier than air, so first vehicle accident on the bridge theat leaks out its anhydrous ammonia, the troll will die a slow death….so sad.
Flat-Earth Paul Troll Brown Troll,
Give me an alternative, RIGHT NOW, that will replace all the functionality of fossil fuels. Give me a map, RIGHT NOW, that will lead to immediate infrastructure replacements. Give me, RIGHT NOW, a means to improve the standards of living for as many as have been provided by fossil fuels. I don’t care if it were fossil fuels or mint jelly: it’s what we have, it’s what industries have been built around, and there is enough to keep our civilizations going. Big oil companies find where the fossil fuels are, find ways to retrieve the fossil fuels, and deliver them to us. Flat-Earth Paul the Troll, are you using a computer? Are you using electricity? Are you using ANY modern appliance? Do you take ANY medication? Do you eat ANYTHING you haven’t grown or hunted? Are you wearing clothes you haven’t created, with materials you haven’t grown, with tools you haven’t crafted yourself from materials you personally gathered…..Yes, you rely on oil, you rely on the imperfect methods of retrieval and delivery. Give me an alternative, and I’ll get politically active on its behalf. You, Paul, are the hypocrite and the troll. The entire civilized world depends on oil- like it or not. Don’t like the industry? Get politically active somehow. Vote for someone who stands for the reduction in scale of federal gov’t. Don’t fault the industry- private businesses can’t do any harm unless there’s a massive government able to return the favor for their political contributions and lobbying….There’s a demand, OBVIOUSLY beyond your scope of understanding, and that’s why oil companies prosper. Companies pollute? Find the politicians that allow it to happen. Politicians shouldn’t have the power to allow it to happen, because ANYONE can be bought. Your crusade against oil is like a child throwing a tantrum….calm yourself, and take another look at what you’re really trolling about…still waiting on that alternative, by the way….
It is good that people recognize that this goes beyond being a conservative or liberal issue, however, the Koch brothers, who staunch create and support conservative issues with shadow organizations and deception, are the ones trying to benefit from this pipeline at everyone else’s expense. Take that into account any time you learn that they are the ones behind any issue that you have been led to support.
Thanks. About the Koch, we need to remember they are big funders of the Tea Party to keep millions of conservatives pro-industry at all cost – including poor health, suffering and death. The Dems are not better, even going as far as supporting Hillary Clinton.
You might be able to afford to pay for middle east oil. I cannot. The tar sands gas and oil will be cheaper. I pay my credit card, I pay my utilities. I barely have enough to pay for gas. You environmentalists do not care about the real people.
You’ve swallowed the Cool Aid, or maybe you’re making it. You’re suffering from fossil fuel ills, and don’t want to fight back. Instead, you accept killing and displacing millions of people abroad and at home for fuels that are making you and others sick and dead. Environmentalists care about people, that’s why they care about the environment. They’re fighting for you. You and they live in that environment and it is getting worse because of the fossil fuel industry. Recognize the enemy and fight them, rather than siding with them.
You’ll care a lot more about the environment when it comes to your neighborhood, and it will.
Final note: most of the new oil and gas and coal are for export, and won’t lower the cost of carbon for you. That cost will keep going up.
You insane LaRouchians still going eh? A nuclear plant in every kitchen.
‘We’ care about you than you do indeed!

While I’m no tree-hugger, I do love the environment & care about people & personal rights.
This issue needs to be seen from a property right angle, IMO. Are citizens’ lands being seized for “imminent domain” reasons? If so, I take issue with that, as this is a business matter, plain & simple. There is too much abuse of “imminent domain” for the sake of helping greedy, uncaring businesses in their big-$$ schemes.
Also, perhaps there should be refineries built up north, closer to the production sites so that “cleaner oil” (I know, it sounds weird) is then shipped through pipelines. I feel for the people who are confronted with either few jobs or possible ruin to their communities & lands if something goes wrong. Small towns in middle America often suffer from lack of jobs, so they are hard-pressed to say “no” on things like this.
Texans fought like crazy against the Trans-Texas Corridor or SuperHighway that was being very forcibly pushed on them. Then it came out that the lands they were going to be forced to part with via “imminent domain” was going astray. Choice business locations on the edges of the roadways were going to be sold for big $$ by the state, rather than the original landowners getting the chance to have those profits on such prime real estate when the road would go through. People fumed — at the stealing of the land & then at the crooked cronyism that seemed to be involved in the resale of it, too! Despite heavy push & shove & reboot tactics by state govt, the people finally won & the whole thing got cancelled, it seems. (They probably hope to revive it eventually, rename it, and try again for the big $$ deals in secret.)
