What We Save Saves Us

This is from the Support Standing Rock Sioux protest on November 15th, 2016 in Chicago.

 

The protest was to show that Chicago stands in solidarity with the Standing Rock Sioux in their protest against the Dakota Access Pipeline.

 

Pipelines leak, a lot actually, and poison the water around us. This pipelines crosses many water sources, streams and rivers and puts in jeopardy the water for many people.

 

The processing and consumption of oil is having a disastrous effect on our climate. In many ways. We need to be investing and installing clean energy utilizing wind and solar power instead.

 

Not only does pipelines like this one have negative impacts on people and our water - the only thing it does do is make wealthy oil corporations even wealthier.

 

It must stop. I gladly took part in the protest. Particularly with recent events in the United States - attending the protest was a very welcome breathe of fresh air and humanity.

 

Super Sunday to you my friend.
