Biden is on record as saying he wants to end f****l f**l use in the US. He has ended US f****l f**l independance. We are now dependant upon foreign sources (opec). Solar and or wind will never provide enough energy. Solar can't work at night or even in bad weather. Windmills are not efficient enough to provide adequate replacement for oil. The power for electric cars is generated by f****l f**ls. So f****l f**l use will not decline, polution from it's production will not decline, but will only happen someplace else. BUT however the price we pay for our use of tyhese foreign imports will (and already has) dramatically increased.. All these changes are as a direct result of Bidens policies. Several things will (and have) result. Because of the Biden policy, Russia supplies Europe with a large amount of its f****l f**l. Therefore Russia exerts a great deal of influence over europe's economies. The US binfluence is deminished. F****l f**l polution from its use will not be reduced in the us despite what Biden want Inflation will get worse and will continue, untill these policies are revived/ SO I have decided 1 or 2 or both of these things are true. Biden is a complete fool intent upon hurting the US. Or Biden has the intelligence of a fire hydrant

At least fire hydrants are useful...

Perhaps another reason?
With the closure of gas and oil leases on federal land, the US will be extracting less gas and oil.
With the cancellation of the Keystone XL Pipeline, the US will be refining less oil.
Yet there is still a need for that refined oil. Surely, someone else, somewhere else, will do it. Some other company or companies will do it. Could it be that Sinopec (China Petroleum & Chemical Company) will be one of these companies? You know, the Chinese oil company that received about $1 Billion in investment from H****r B***n's private equity firm BHR Partners? Hmmm?

No oil has been taken from Bears Ears or the Escalante Staircase.
Closing them had zero impact.
Oh yeah one more thing, The Keystone Pipeline has never carried a drop of oil.
Hope that was helpful.

It's all designed to destroy the economy in pr********n for globalism.

Wow, you really need to educate yourself.

The world is passing you by.

Racmanaz Loc: Sunny Tucson!

Do we really want to be dependent on f****l f**ls forever? Don't let the big oil companies discourage you from t***sitioning from burning f****l f**ls to renewable energy sources. I think maybe people should be more concerned in how it is being implemented and the rate of speed to which we are t***sitioning. I am all for renewable energy sources within time.

Duh... it doubled the capacity of the existing pipeline... however, the oil is still shipped, by rail. Costs more, takes longer, and is much more dangerous.

From the article above- bet you wish you knew what you were talking about. However it is the BBC- bet you don't trust 'em.... ROFL
"It would mirror an existing pipe, also called Keystone, but would take a more direct route, boosting the flow of oil from Canada."

Frank T Loc: New York, NY

Wrong Richie.
It would have had it been completed.
Thus shutting down construction had no impact.

He has more smarts than you any day. Look where you are an look where Biden is. Pres. Lol

dirtpusher Loc: tulsa oklahoma

Keystone has had more severe leaks than any other

David Martin Loc: Cary, NC

Of course you are correct about the pipeline, and I should have said that the US will refine less oil than we would have.
Nonetheless it is a curious juxtaposition when the US puts limits on gas/oil processing, while a) green lighting the Russian pipeline and b) H****r heavily invested in Chinese oil processing.

mwalsh Loc: Houston

What did the USA have to do with "approving" the Russia to Europe pipeline?

mwalsh Loc: Houston

Canada and Russia are our #1 and #2 sources for oil imports.

Happened in May.
"The Biden administration has decided to waive sanctions against the company overseeing the construction of Russia's Nord Stream 2 gas pipeline to Germany, despite bipartisan opposition in Congress and appeals from Eastern European governments."
