The toxic politics of pipelines .....
Forgive me - but our media plays a large part in this debacle ! Beyond scaremongering headlines I have yet to come across any coherent statistically significant STEM data based article that would clarify/quantify the relative risks and $$ efficiencies of petroleum transport - rail or pipeline, tanker. Without such factual data set on which to base political, economic and technical decisions the headline and political three ring circus takes precedence !
Methinks the Trump virus is propagating across our border .-)
