There has been drilling in Montana and ND for decades. It would be hard for the environmentalists to complain now, especially since even the Democrats in those states are onboard.

There has been drilling in Montana and ND for decades. It would
be hard for the environmentalists to complain now, especially since
even the Democrats in those states are onboard.

In a sane world...you'd be right on target.

"Sixty Minutes" had a segment on the great energy reserves
under Montana and neighboring states.

A good part of the segment was about the coalition of burr-cut
ranchers and bath-once-a-year environmentalists already throwing
up roadblocks to energy projects.

At the very least, these enviro-nutburgers will slow down the
enterprise and make it more expensive.
