Stop the Tar Sands Pipeline! Save Our Songbird!s

Stop the Pipeline! Save Our Songbirds! - The Petition Site
President Obama has called for a clean energy future. But his State Department is rushing toward approval of the Keystone XL tar sands pipeline, which would boost oil company profits by transporting the world's dirtiest oil from Canada to Texas. The pipeline will drive more destruction of songbird habitat in the Boreal forest and threaten the drinking water of millions of Americans.

President Obama promised the American people a "robust review" of the pipeline, but his State Department has not delivered it. Instead, it has sided with the oil giants by refusing to study the real environmental and economic costs of this disaster-in-the-making. 

(well, its important to attack the Tar Sands from as many directions as possible...)
