In Texas, opponents of the Keystone XL oil pipeline have set up a new tree blockade in the path of the pipeline’s southern leg. Protesters say they have shielded two “dump platforms” with a series of lifelines that could potentially drop protesters from 50 or 60 feet in the air if disturbed. The blockade outside Diboll, Texas, follows the conclusion of a months-long blockade against the controversial pipeline near the Texas city of Winnsboro.
