Among the many folks and organizations against this pipeline was the National Resources Defense Council, NRDC. Here are a few words of what they had to say about the pipeline:
"Make no mistake: a no-holds-barred review of the Keystone XL pipeline
will reveal that this entire scheme is a boon to Big Oil and a
disaster-in-the-making for the rest of us. It would drive more destruction of
the Boreal forest, turbo-charge global warming, threaten water supplies in the
heartland, raise gas prices and lock America into the dirtiest oil on the
planet for decades to come."
