Post Carbon Fellow Bill McKibben spoke to Democracy Now! about how people can stop Keystone XL despite Trump’s approval of the project.

From the interview:

His whole plan is: What can we do to save the oil industry? The oil industry is in trouble, because demand is beginning to disappear. Yesterday, at midday in California, more than half of the state’s electricity was being provided by renewables—a new record. That’s pretty amazing. You know, we’re about to see the big advent of electric cars. These things terrify the oil industry because they destroy demand. That’s why the Trump administration is getting rid of the mileage standards for cars. They’re going to try and get rid of California’s Clean Air Act exemptions. They’re stopping climate research so no one will be noticing that we have less ice than we’ve ever had in the Arctic and the Antarctic. I mean, this is—this is craziness.
