Happy New Year from American Rivers

An Energetic State of the Union Address

In this year’s State of the Union address, President Obama spoke extensively about the importance of domestic energy development to increase jobs and decrease dependence on foreign oil. The President used the term “clean energy” to encompass a broad array of energy practices. What should be considered “clean energy”? Let's not rush and push development of resources that are neither “clean” nor renewable.

President Rejects the Keystone XL Pipeline

American Rivers applauds the President’s decision to reject the permit for the Keystone XL Pipeline.

Big Oil and their allies in Congress were pushing to force approval of the pipeline without adequate scientific review and for political gain. We should never put politics ahead of clean water for Americans.
