The Pipeline to Hell

From left to right Greg Croft, Dan Miller, Cassie Doyel, Sam Avery

Greg Dalton moderates a discussion about the Canadian tar sands and Keystone XL pipeline. Canadian diplomat Cassie Doyel say it’s better for America to get its energy from Canada than unfriendly nations. Author Sam Avery warns that there’s enough carbon in the tar sands “to send Earth’s climate into an irreversible tailspin.” Dan Miller, Managing Director of the Roda Group, looks at the long term saying “as a price on carbon kicks in, and it starts to build over time, the tar sands will be the first things that will be knocked off the list.” Greg Croft, Lecturer at St. Mary’s College of California, points out that “the carbon problem is global and we haven't solved any problems on a global basis.”
