SS.....Re: KXL..this is an interesting and informative comment from the link you posted. Anthony Swift — Dec 20 2011 10:51 AMMr. Harris, if you take a look at what the DOE/EnSys report has to say about KXL's impact on Canadian crude imports into the U.S., the report concludes that Canadian crude oil imports will be almost identical whether or not Keystone XL is built, reaching 3.6 million bpd by 2030 both cases. (Section 5.2.3.1, page 90-91, keystonepipeline-xl.state.gov ). Moreover, that finding is repeatedly reiterated throughout the report. The issue of Keystone XL's use as a pipeline to export diesel is based on Oil Change International's report, Valero's presentation to its investors and TransCanada's comments to regulators and law makers in the US and Canada.

The reach of the Ogallala aquifer... Water Scarcity on the Texas High Plains: The Ogallala Aquifer youtube.com On the southern high plains of Texas, on a time-scale less than an average human lifetime, growing concerns over water scarcity are playing out. This short documentary provides a glimpse into an unusually important, and long-running research and demonstration project, called the Texas Coalition for Sustainable Integrated Systems Research (TeCSIS) and the Texas Alliance for Water Conservation (TAWC). One of the largest cooperative research efforts of its kind, involving scores of scientific researchers, educational institutions, government agencies, and local area farmers (producers), they are trying to find answers to extend the life of the Ogallala aquifer, and promote more sustainable, economic viability for this invaluable agricultural region.
