Pipes are arriving for Keystone XL
Friends,
Trucks and trains full of pipes slated for Keystone XL have started to arrive in South Dakota and Montana as TransCanada begins pre-construction.
We've stopped this pipeline before, and we'll stop it again. Right now our best opportunity to stand in solidarity with Indigenous communities and stop KXL is for thousands of us to submit a public comment to the state department calling out Trump's latest sham environmental review of this project before the deadline in 8 days.
Tell the Trump Administration they won't get away with this sham review: No Keystone XL.
The law requires that these comments are tallied, analyzed, and considered in the final environmental review. We can make our voices opposing this pipeline heard if we have too many signatures for them to ignore.
In August, a federal judge ruled that the federal review of the pipeline was inadequate – so the Trump Administration came back just 37 days later with another rushed job claiming the impacts of the project would be "minor." Yet just last year, the Keystone 1 pipeline spilled more than 200,000 gallons of dirty oil in South Dakota.
There are only 8 days left before the deadline. This fight is about to ramp up, but we're ready. There are three active lawsuits, 17,000+ people ready to take peaceful action in solidarity with Indigenous communities on the route if called upon, and a strong coalition led by Indigenous leaders that's prepared to take on whatever comes.
Keystone XL would be game over for the climate – and we must stop it with everything we've got. We can't stay silent, submit a comment now.
Thank you for being with us,
Kendall

Greetings!
Thanks for your interest in 350 Seattle - we're excited to build a global climate movement with you!
We're a grassroots organization passionate about working to engage our community in the fight for climate justice: from the local aspects of global fights like tar sands funding and Arctic drilling; to regional battles to deepen the thin green line; to efforts to support affordable housing and transit locally (the two biggest issues for our carbon emissions). We need your help!

1) Volunteer with us—there are lots of ways to get involved!
2) Follow us on Facebook and Twitter.
3) Check out our mission, our workgroups, and our Things to Do Right Now page.
Our most time-sensitive information tends to be in our action alert emails and on our FB page. For other new initiatives or voices, check out our blog. And for a once-a-month compendium of information, the monthly newsletter can't be beat (it also gets posted to our blog). If you're ready to think about supporting or taking part in direct action, please sign the Pledge!
Thank you, again. We look forward to working together with you to fight the roots of climate change. There's no time to waste.
