Don't know, don't care. It's still only 1.6% of the total, which means even if we cut it to zero, it would be negligible.
We're 36 million people in a country covering almost 10 million square kilometres. Large distances between towns is the norm in much of the country, especially out west. So we have to drive a lot. Our climate isn't overly balmy on the average, so we have to heat our homes more often. It's called life as we know it here. We need pipelines; they're a more efficient and actually safer to transport oil, unless some ecological warriors sabotage them, which would be the ultimate irony. Don't like pipelines? How about lots more tanker trucks? Oh, but that means even more emissions. How about more trains to carry it? Ask the people of Lac Megantic, Quebec, how they feel about that.
Before someone living in a left-wing la-la land wish bubble starts criticizing a country, it might help to actually know something about it.
The thing is the ultra lefties are the ones opposed to pipelines. The rest of the people are opposed to where they put them and how. As in taking someones property or putting it under water sources.
The Dakota pipeline safety issue is only became a thing once those lefties got on board to help the natives and the people in the cities near its path.
It started out as being the case of the government taken land from the natives and then later it going under the river which was a water source and recreational source for two small cities.
Also that and i believe it was close to some nature preserve or something.
You have stupid lefties just as you have stupid righties.
