I do not support it as a necessary act, but as an interesting idea. It is not essential to the succession of our nation, and if aboriginal groups do not support it, there is cultural interference happening. I am not supporting an act with the potential to create personal conflict.
@9MC4BQL6 days6D
No, we have basically waged war on local tribes by allowing militias and even used the US army to help against those who would stand in your way. Not to mention the history or pipelines leaking and destroying the environment just for this energy source.
@9LN42DV4wks4W
Yes, assuming all measures can be taken to ensure reduced impact on the environment and affected communities.
@9LJGNWT 1mo1MO
Yes, as long as the corporations building the pipeline and operating the pipeline have UNLIMITED LIABILITY and either sufficient assets or bonding in place to clean up an environmental disaster. If the cost of the potential loss or bonding is prohibitive, then this is a market force that will drive stakeholders to alternatives.
@9H5Z3PK6mos6MO
I do support it but at the same time I don't, i'm in the middle. I say this because this is a good idea but what if it breaks or leaks and there is a lot of money going into it.
@9GPTJ2D6mos6MO
Yes, energy sources should be diversified to include both renewable sources, and safe transportation on existing fuel sources. While there needs to be a significant increase in the development of renewable energy infrastructure, this project had to be seen to completion to avoid wasteful financial penalties for breaking contract agreements.
