A large global warming protest with a very Canadian connection is scheduled for Sunday February 17th at the White House.
The protest, organized by the Sierra Club and 350.org, is being dubbed as the biggest climate rally in U.S. history and is meant to encourage President Obama to veto the construction of the proposed Keystone XL pipeline that would carry oil from northern Alberta down to the Gulf of Mexico.
In a telephone interview with Yahoo! Canada News, 350.org's Daniel Kessler said that he is expecting tens of thousands of people including "several groups" from Canada.
Obama is expected to make a decision about the fate of the pipeline within the next two to three months but at this point no one seems quite sure which way he's leaning. During his State of Union address, on Tuesday, the President emphasized his commitment to battling climate change but also touched on the need build energy infrastructure.

From what I have read, she's one of the very few who actually walks the walk with regard to her environmentalism.
I may not agree with her, but I can give her credit where credit is due.
geez... STILL??
We know the data was faked!
Give it up already, libtards!
It will get 300x the media coverage that the March for Life did a couple of weeks ago.
Hell,its about the same in every community
in the USA.Propose anything to build from a rock quarry,
land fill,etc.Theres gonna be groups against it.

Canada ping
To all- please ping me to Canadian topics.
Canada Ping!
and will the media cover this or will they ignore it like they do when tens of thousands march for life every year.
Nah they;ll cover it, hell even if 100 people turn up there is coverage but Glenn Beck has a million and they try to ignore it.
just mentioned that and then saw your post.
March for life has tens of thousands every year and not a peep from the media, but 20 global warming zombies protest out side hte white house nad it’s all over the news.
Maybe we conservatives in our millions should do what the Egyptians do and camp out and demand the tyrant socialist give up power and we have free and fair elections, no fraud no dead peoplel no illegals , no made up votes and have our side votes be counted.
Wonder if the media will cover 3 million people camping outside for weeks demanding obama must go.
Nah thought not
0bama probably made the phone call initiating the rally. This is how he works. WHO G.A.F. WHAT KING O SAYS.. BUILD THE DAMN PIPELINE!!!!
Thank God! Finally somebody is doing something! The percentage of CO2 in the earths atmosphere is 0.04% which you can call “zero point zero”! By god, if we wait any longer it can get as high as zero point zero!
Oh yes, and the percentage of methane in the earths atmosphere is 0.00017%! AHHHH!!! zero point zero zero zero!!! My God, what if it goes up to zero point zero zero zero??
Liberals = The definition of insanity.
Try hundreds of thousands for March for Life.
I think it was over a half million this year. My wife went for the first time. In fact, in about 3 hours, she’s going to be on post in front of a local abortion clinic.
"I have some 1800 geography books that show these hot-spots in the Pacific. Also circa 1850 books on methane released from the oceans, volcano releases. None of this stuff is new. They're just trying to put numbers to it...and predict the future... They're guessing at best but man is soooo vain."
Anyone planning a counter protest with "Real Data" signs?
How many arrive on the dreaded “private jets” ??
Perfect weather for an asteroid strike.
I wouldn’t mind a nice stony or metallic asteroid touching down in that area.
This should be “freeped” with signs reading
“Climate Change causes Asteroid Strikes”
As well as
“CO2 is causing Martian Warming”
This has “FLOP” written all over it.
Let them pay for their green energy B.S. Leave the rest of us taxpayers alone.
Hah! No doubt.
Presumably they will drive or fly to DC. If libs use the “NRA kills kids” slogan we need to use the “enviromenalists kill polar bears” since they use oil.
Northeastern US and Ontario trade interests behind those so-called environmentalists. They want to continue the free ride with the dollar artificially propped high for the continuing trade imbalance and shutdown of every last bit of manufacturing on US soil.
