In Oregon, a so-called megaload of oil equipment departed for the tar sands of Alberta, Canada, Monday night, a day after protesters successfully blocked it from leaving. On Sunday, two people locked themselves to a truck at the Port of Umatilla, stalling departure of the massive equipment, which they say will travel through sensitive areas and then help fuel climate change in the oil fields.
